Re: Question: How to set where you emerge from the Tor Cloud?



You can specify which exit node to use, but this makes you less anonymous because tor can't randomize your circuits. The best way (AFAIK) is to block all nodes except those in the particular country you want to use.

Hey Folks,

New to Tor, but love the idea and the functionality.  Privacy is my
business right now, so I find this a great effort.

I've installed Tor and all on Firefox, and it works great.  Problem is
I can't quite figure out how to control the country from  which I
emerge from the Tor Cloud.  I need this to be able to check how a
particular website treats me based on my in-country IP addresss. e.g.,
I want to go to Facebook through Tor and emerge with a UK IP address
to assess whether Facebook sees me as coming from a UP IP addy.

Any help would be appreciated.

thanks,
David
