docker-pulls image-size

This Docker image sets up Tor to be used as a SOCKS proxy that can redirect traffic through the Tor network.

Tor⁠ is a free and open-source software for enabling anonymous communication by directing Internet traffic through a free, worldwide, volunteer overlay network to conceal a user's location and usage from anyone performing network surveillance or traffic analysis.

⁠Installation

To use Tor for improved privacy, follow these steps:

  1. Clone and start the container:

    docker run -p 9050:9050 docker.io/aguslr/tor:latest
    
  2. Change your Web browser's proxy settings⁠ to point to the appropriate proxy:

    • All traffic through Tor: use SOCKSv5 proxy with 127.0.0.1:9050.

Using a SOCKSv5 proxy is preferred as it provides added security.

⁠Build locally

Instead of pulling the image from a remote repository, you can build it locally:

  1. Clone the repository:

    git clone https://github.com/aguslr/docker-tor.git
    
  2. Change into the newly created directory and use docker-compose to build and launch the container:

    cd docker-tor && docker-compose up --build -d
