How to anonymize the programs from your terminal with torify
Tor (short for The Onion Router) is a system intended to enable online anonymity. #Tor client software directs internet traffic through a worldwide volunteer network of servers to conceal a user’s location or usage from anyone conducting network surveillance or #traffic analysis. Using Tor makes it more difficult to trace Internet activity, including “visits to Web sites, online posts, instant messages and other communication forms”, back to the user and is intended to protect users’ personal #freedom, #privacy, and ability to conduct confidential business by keeping their internet activities from being monitored.
Today I want to show some simple uses of the command #torify that can be used from the #Linux #terminal.
torify is a simple wrapper that attempts to find the best underlying Tor wrapper available on a system. It calls #torsocks or #tsocks with a tor specific configuration file.

Als Antwort auf tom s • • •curl
handles many different application-level protocols: HTTP, HTTPS, gopher, DICT, etc.If you have Tor Browser or MinusBrowser running, you can borrow their SOCKS5 proxies to use Tor from
curl
.With Tor Browser running
curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9150 https://archive.org/robots.txt
With MinusBrowser running
curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9050 https://archive.org/robots.txt
Of course, if you have Tor Browser, you may as well use it to browse HTTPS.
You can use this trick to read articles in Gopher Holes that have
.onion
URLs. Notice that these two use Tor Browser's SOCKS5 proxy.curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9150 gopher://enlrupgkhuxnvlhsf6lc3fziv5h2hhfrinws65d7roiv6bfj7d652fid.onion/0/hacker-manifesto.txt
curl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9150 gopher://4kcetb7mo7hj6grozzybxtotsub5bempzo4lirzc3437amof2c2impyd.onion/0/phlog/2020-08-19-recycling-sustainability.txt
Of course, if you have MinusBrowser, you may as well use it to browse Gopher.
curl
handles many more protocols than just Gopher and HTTPS. Here's how to look up the word "hacker" in the Jargon File withcurl
using Tor. This requires that the Tor Browser be runningcurl --socks5-hostname 127.0.0.1:9150 dict://dict.org/d:"hacker":jargon

Other software, including Pidgin, can also borrow Tor Browser's or MinusBrowser's SOCKS5 proxies.
