That also makes sense. Wouldnt that potentially risk the users de-anonymising themselves (and OP)? They wouldnt be protected by the tor browser protections, so a site could request location etc.

well the given permissions should be vetted, but even then, considering all the traffic that suddenly and collectively comes from a different IP, maybe that could still deanonymize users.

but, the point was censorship circumvention, not anonymity, so if the user considers the risks it could still be useful

Standard VPN is probably a better tool.

yeah but that could be easier to block. and often the provider requires you to have their app which will do who knows what.

Routing all traffic through a VPN isnt too hard,

and actually it's easier. like you just create a tunnel, which gets its own network interface, and you set that network interface up as if it was your actual internet connection. I'm pretty sure there's a package that adds the web gui menus for the first part.

but, OP should also look up V2Ray and other proxying tech to be able to do something in case things become worse.
