今天收到了卓越的一封信：

真是天上掉電影票。。。

但是再往下看，無語了。

我先坐飛機去北京，看了電影，然後回來。很好，很好。

I haven’t installed tor since I reinstalled my system about half a year ago. I use pkblog to visit blogspot, rely on rss to read blogs at LJ， and use gollum to visit wikipedia.

Now wikipedia is Ok. Good news.

However, I am seeking for a free site host recently, and find almost all unavailable by some unknown reasons.

Therefore I installed gladder, which is a nice auto proxy swither for firefox. I recomend it. Just a simple firefox plugin. You doesn’t need anything else and you get things done. Therefore, I just live with it happily and forget tor.

However, there is some problem with this method, including but not limited to:

They are slow. Sometimes I cannot get CSS, sometimes even get time out.

Sometimes they will be blocked by some sites.

http header problems.

You don’t know where you are. (The url in the address bar is a string full of #$$#@%%%
)

And more…

All of the above are bearable if you only use it to visit sites. But if you want to edit your page, configure your site, etc, things become different.

Finally, I determined to install tor.

Not very frustrating as I expected. (Maybe because this is the second time.) About half an hour, I got things done. Compling tor is very fast. (Yes, I know I cannot compare this with compling pidgin.) The configuration of privoxy is also very simple. (Just adding a short line.) The only thing out of my expect is that you have to use the config file as an argument when running privoxy. That is, instead of just type sudo privoxy, you should type

It seems really wired for me. I didn’t get things work until I see the manual page of privoxy.

Everything works. I regret that I hadn’t install tor eariler.

It’s really easy. I complied tor from source. If you use something like aptitude to install from binary packages, things will be even easier.

Just do it. Install tor and enjoy the whole Internet, rather than half of it. Good luck! (Though you don’t need good luck to isntall tor. You need it to enjoy the whole Internet without tor.)
