This is by design. TOR browser assumes it can speak TOR protocols and connect to .onion addresses (etc). However, the VPN will come out onto the clearnet, rather than TOR's network. TOR browser cannot lookup TOR addresses, nor can it connect to anything relying on TOR. If you want to do this to access clearnet sites, you'd have to use a standard browser. The VPN should work just fine, so long as you're not trying to connect to TOR specific services through it. Though, please see above warning about doing so. The only reason I can think of to do this is if you live in a location that blocks VPNs, but is fine with TOR. Otherwise, you have exactly the same security model as just using the VPN, plus the overhead and attack surface of TOR/Whonix. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
