Kik and similar over TOR? Anonymous 09/18/2022 (Sun) 04:38:34 No. 9801 >>10658
How would one go about setting up a machine to talk on Kik over TOR without compromising anonymity? I'm sure others would be curious about Telegram and similar chat apps. Simply put, with all the surveillance capitalism and in particular, data hoarding practices by China and other threat actors, how does one reduce ones risk profile while still being able to enjoy their time online?
>>9801 (OP) I imagine tails / linux would be your answer since it can pass everything over tor, even if you're not using tor browser. I think even on debian you can create a virtual network interface that actually is connected to tor
Run Kik in an Android VM on Tails and route the entire traffic through Tor, easy
TOR doesn't support UDP
>>17434 Does KIK use UDP or TCP? What about Telegram? Other software?
>>17417 Does Tails allow running a VM within the software? I would have thought I would need Whonix or another privacy-based OS, no?
Never used Kik, but a lot of social media is not pleasant to use anonymously. Sometimes they want a persistent trackable identity for you, which means you may need to rent some SMS service or just accounts directly, usually with coins you mixed, just to register an account. If it's UDP or if they block Tor IPs, you may also need to pay for some VPN (client ran in a VM), but that makes you pseudonymous instead of anonymous (if VPN goes after Tor). You may even need to "sticky" the outgoing IP or at least country for some services like Discord. Using third party clients may also help avoid some annoyances. There are various free ways to do this if you don't want to pay, but expect more pain, and a lot more tries needed to register and avoid being banned.
why do you fucking idiots insist on using kik instead of wickr? i refuse to believe you're all this stupid
