Tor
Tor
Since there is no Tor-Browser in PostmarketOS
sudo apk add tor
sudo cp /etc/tor/torrc.sample /etc/tor/torrc
sudo service tor start
check if it is running with:
sudo netstat -tunlp | grep tor
in Firefox Network Settings Select:
Manual proxy configuration
SOCKS Host 127.0.0.1 Port 9050
Tick the Proxy DNS when using SOCKS v5
For autostart Tor on boot:
sudo rc-update add tor default
This however, will not work in a country which Censors Tor connections, e.g. Iran, China...
You need to get obfs4proxy, its package name is lyrebird and you have to build it yourself.
get it with:
sudo apk add lyrebird --repository=https://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/testing
Since you might not be able to access the official repo take my pre-built package, make lyrebird executable and copy it to /usr/bin/lyrebird try quickly if you can run it, if yes, it will throw an error like: lyrebird - must be run as a managed transport
Next make sure /etc/tor/torrc contains:
Log notice file /var/log/tor/notices.log DataDirectory /var/lib/tor ClientTransportPlugin obfs4 exec /usr/bin/lyrebird
then start or restart tor:
sudo rc-service tor start
watch the log file while it tries to circumvent censorship:
sudo tail -f /var/log/tor/notices.log
try in your configured browser. GOOD LUCK!
