7/6/2023 0 Comments Transmission torrent proxy![]() ![]() Putting the options in their present state to the same tab would not produce an excessive clutter imho. In concern to bloating "Preferences" - indeed, "Privacy" and "Proxy" seem fall naturally to the same category. Or to build my own version of Transmission with a piece of old code - fortunately, in open source projects the source code is usually available. :) Even using Transmission from time to time to receive distribution upgrades I personally would prefer to keep the feature alive. The absence of bug reports concerning tracker proxy may simply mean that it works. Legal issues associated to traffic anonymizing/encryption - that's another matter. Tracker proxy support can protect at least against some simple traffic analyzers, and that's better than nothing at all. Many ISPs nowadays are manipulating bittorrent traffic pretending they fight piracy in such a way. ![]() On my opinion, supporting communication via proxy (at least at the tracker level) is vital to the usability of any BitTorrent? application - unless there is another better anonymizing tool built-in in it.
