How to conceal TOR usage from ISP

As many of you know, TOR does shield your internet traffic from prying eyes. Your ISP is said to however, see that you are using TOR and accordingly they will document it for some purpose that is likely not good for us.

The natural answer would be to use a VPN however, when using TAILS (like many of us do) there is no native way to set up a VPN. When you go to Internet connection->Set up VPN, everything is greyed out.

Figured I would ask, how do you all get around this?

You can set up vpn on your router if it has something that supports openvpn

Get all your neighbors and friends to use TOR at random times. The more the merrier!

buy a router, flash it with custom FW. Gargoyle is a good one.

Use whonix instead of tails


[1 Points] elfer90:

run tails in a veracrypt volume and run vpn on host machine or run vpn on router then use tails usb or vm

It's possible to run Tails in a Virtual Machine on your PC that connects via a VPN. Not particularly hard and all the software you need is available for free.

As others have said get a router and install tomato or something on the router. Install openVPN job done.

Alternatively, you can run a VPN from a raspberry PI, there was a guide posted around here somewhere for just that purpose of installing and running a VPN on a PI.

This is a little off topic, but if you would like to browse clearnet sites through tor without dealing with sites doing a bunch of exit node blocking on tor users, install jondonym on whonix, then you can browse clearnet sites and tor acts as a proxy from the gateway while you use jondonym on the workstation.
