    just connecting to Tor is very much a huge exposure imho

    Exposure of what, to whom?

      using Tor is enough meta data if you were to use it to safeguard from some actors (e.g. state). I’m just saying from the perspective of some of the hypothetical personas as defined by Tor project itself. If it were to boil this down to me, I would rather live without the correlation attacks (e.g. ISP giving me seemingly random disconnects) and just do my casual reading on cracking on the clear-net.

        This is not a guide to hide from the government or ISP. Just a way to tunnel to your home server without publishing the sshd for random strangers. Personally, I’d just publish the ssh and be done with it.

        The more people using Tor, the less useful targeted disconnects become.
