dss 0 Posted ... Greetings! I have a question. It is a simple concept that I have been thinking for a while now and I sincerely believe that will be a good question. So let's cut to the chase. For instance, imagine that you are in a hostile small country where AirVPN is pretty unknown service and it's maybe used by maximum of 200 people (if?!). You are very tech saavy, security aware and also using strong passwords etc etc.. Long story short, it is not enough if you utilize all the security measures.Why? Because one big problem persists. If you connect to one of your anonymous servers the bad guys can see your destination and say "He is connecting to IP x.x.x.x, well that's a VPN server from AirVPN..." and so you are busted. Or put on a blacklist. So the point is that even if the connection is encrypted and secured the bad guys (once again) can grep out your destination IP and match it with one of the AirVPN servers IP. Solution would be then VPN over TOR or VPN over VPN. Am I right?(Also TOR + VPN == bad speed?!) I hope that the question is clear here, Best Regards, dss Quote Share this post Link to post

A possible mitigation can be connecting Air over various proxies and performing proxy rotation. An example (Air over TOR):https://airvpn.org/torKind regards Quote Share this post Link to post
