[Feature request] Triple-hop or allow connection to be routed through as many servers as possible #6834

Open AItoid opened 1 week ago

AItoid commented 1 week ago

I have checked if others have suggested this already

Feature description

If it's possible, I'd certainly like to see a new function for multi-hop, allowing you to select 3 individual servers, or maybe even as much as possible. This idea came from the idea of onion routing that routes your connection through multiple servers. For example, Tor Project has an entry, middle, and exit.

Alternative solutions

None that I can think of, just multi-hop with 2 servers. I'd think the idea would be pretty simple to implement, especially considering there is already a base for multi-hop.

Type of feature

Operating System

Hi again, we have decided to not implement this for now. Keeping the issue open for now to track the engagement from the community, but do not expect any updates from us Mullvad devs on this feature request in a while. Thanks for your understanding :yellow_heart:
