Is it worth using a VPN with Tor?
Generally speaking, we don't recommend using a VPN with Tor unless you're an advanced user who knows how to configure both in a way that doesn't compromise your privacy. You can find more detailed information about Tor + VPN at our wiki.
Is it better to use Tor without VPN?
Is it safe to use Tor without a VPN? While using a VPN and Tor together can help prevent any of the nodes from seeing your IP address, Tor is still extremely secure on its own, making it very difficult for anyone to identify a specific Tor user.
What happens if you use a VPN with Tor?
If you go Tor > VPN, your traffic will be encrypted when it enters and exits the Tor network. You will need a special VPN provider that supports such a connection. While the VPN encryption protects you from malicious exit nodes, your ISP will be able to see that you are using Tor. However, you get less anonymity.
