Anonymizer able to proxy chain? #2

Closed itteerde closed 7 months ago

itteerde commented 7 months ago

Does everyone need an Anonymizer (pg. 315) subscription to use it, or can a crew buy one and route the crews hacking/communications meant to be anonymous through that crew member's Mesh Inserts (at least if in VPN with them)?

Can we agree with Happy Fox:

you let muiltiple people use it, but they take penalties like on an overloaded mesh network (which is basically what it is)

@PhDaveMil ?

We talked, and it seems it is not a good idea to agree with Happy Fox. As you understand the IT reason better than I do, Erik, I will let you explain it.

Actually, now having talked about it, the traffic would be all the subscriber, so it would require doing VPN on-top, so not by itself, so no. Otherwise the endpoint would be the subscriber for all traffic down from the service never reaching the sharing parties.
