please don't kill WarnUnsafeSocks option
The message
The WarnUnsafeSocks option is deprecated, and will most likely be removed in a future version of Tor. Changing this option makes it easier for you to accidentally lose your anonymity by leaking DNS information (If you think this is a mistake, please let us know!)
now appears when starting tor since a version upgrade.
I am a expert user of Tor and have several script that issue torsocks dig +tcp
commands performing forward and reverse DNS queries. Have set WarnUnsafeSocks
to 0 to eliminate the spamming of my logs with warnings about explicit IP addresses passing through SOCKS.
The option is useful and should be retained.
