Quote Connecting to Tor before a Tunnel-link (Proxy/VPN/SSH):
- When using a browser, connecting to Tor before a tunnel link worsens the web fingerprint. The anonymity effects of using the configuration:
User
→ (Proxy / VPN / SSH
→)Tor
→Proxy / VPN / SSH
→Tor Browser
→Website
are unknown. This setup is so specialized that very few people are likely to configure it, reducing the Tor Browser user pool to a far smaller subset. Due to potential fingerprinting harm it is recommended against.- If proceeding despite the risk, the tunnel configuration should not be combined with any browser other than Tor Browser (like Firefox or Chrome). This would further exacerbate the browser fingerprinting risk. [33]
