In today’s episode, we discuss how to avoid being de-anonymized on Tor. Excellent episode for beginners covering the Linux distributions Whonix and Tails, the different types of virtual machines such as Oracle Virtbox, QEMU KVM, Xen/Qubes, and setting up your own Tor entrance. And the video is partially animated to make the concepts easy. Enjoy: http://video.simplifiedprivacy.com/tor/

Using your own guard / relay / exit is the worst thing you can do. The most important with Tor, is to not host relays in EU, USA (including the 5 eyes alliance) & other jurisdictions allowing global surveillance & totalitarism. With a ethically good hosting service and sure this tutorial for a hardened Tor relay.

To clarify, it was meant to host with the geographic country restrictions you mentioned and NOT inside your home. Also to not put content on the server that is associated with your identity and pay in cryptocurrency. I hope that clarifies your objection
