Hey everyone,
I’ve been using Orbot on my Android device, and I’m curious about its Kindness Mode. Specifically, I want to know if this mode leaks any of my private details or my IP address to other ISPs. Is it safe to use, or should I be concerned about my privacy? Also, what precautions should I take while using Orbot to ensure my data remains secure? I’d appreciate any insights or experiences you can share! Thanks!

Snowflake is a bit like a bridge so you only transport encrypted traffic to the tor network and no one knows what’s in
The only requirements is to live in a place that is not blocked from Tor (and don’t a low data plan)
