Title: Bitcoin discussions over Skype, Google Talk or similar service
Post by: sron on August 18, 2012, 11:39:49 AM
Hello,

Does anyone else want to talk about bitcoin (general discussion and business contracts) online?

Is there a way to configure TOR to use it with Skype, Google Talk or a similar service?

You can use Pidgin (http://www.pidgin.im/) with a OTR plugin (http://www.cypherpunks.ca/otr/) to encrypt your Gtalk and you can use Pidgin with Gtalk over the Tor network.

Is there a way to make online calls over TOR? Probably not through Skype but GTalk perhaps? Or another similar service?

Atlas, learn how to use a firewall, then you won't have to keep trying to hide your bedroom computer IP.
