Re: [tor-talk] Is it possible to use Tor without showing a Tor IP to the destination?

Providers do exist that don't ask for details and accept payment via
Bitcoin - so it's not impossible to do in such a way that simply
threatening the provider won't be sufficient.

Personally, though, I think it's easy to underestimate/miss some of the
risks inherent in chaining connections like that. More does not always lead
to better privacy/security. If I was going to do it though, I think I'd
probably run a hidden service on the VPN VPS rather than wasting exit
bandwidth.
