When triggered, the automation closes the front drapes and begins playing "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" through the Alexas. My wife teases me about how "important" all that data is to our day to day lives, so to demonstrate the usefulness, I wrote an automation that watches for Boeing 737 Max jets that decend to within 10 meters of our house. I bought a handful of different ones, being certain that a handful wouldn't be enough for all the cool projects they were useful for.įast forward a couple months, and, in order of usefulness, I have a Pi Zero reading our smart meter and feeding realtime usage data to Home Assistant, a Pi running RTL433 reporting every new gadget it happens to catch to to Influx, and a Pi catching and sending ADS-B data to ADSBExchange so I can get free flight data using their API. $20 for a USB stick that can do amazing things. Wow, a crystal controlled Yaesu, a true oldie but goodie! Yeah, times sure changed. There are absolutely malicious actors running exit nodes, and many are likely state sponsored, but you can configure nodes in torrc. The rest of what he is saying about Tor being government controlled, and about not being able to pick your own nodes, I do not understand. In a way, you are using the VPN provider *as* a proxy, and using something else in between those two connections may make it more complex to locate you.
You are relying on that provider's history of resisting subpoenas and the like and kinda crossing your fingers. And if you are using a commercial VPN service for privacy, your connection is still not obscured from the VPN provider, regardless of what they say. In other words, if your VPN is a corporate connection to your work, then obviously it isn't private or anonymous, it is just (hopefully) secure. But what I *think* that he meant by ".you need a proxy too" is that a proxy diverts away from the VPN connection itself, which obscures you from the VPN provider.
I cannot pretend to speak for System Error Message, he is a particularly smart person and can explain himself just fine.
