🧅 Tor Transparent Proxy Written in Go

hidemego - Network Anonymization Tool for Linux

What is hidemego?

hidemego is a network application useful to anonymize the traffic of linux servers and workstations.

The action hidemego performs is to redirect all traffic via SOCKS5 (Tor) Proxy using the Transparent Proxy Method.

DNS requests are also anonymized and hidemego makes DNS Leak almost impossible.

When to use hidemego?

hidemego can be used under any circumstances that require a mandatory anonymity requirement.

The use cases could be different.

• Bypassing Censorship
• Testing
• Scraping
• Preventing attacks on Servers with Critical Information
• Communicating in total anonymity through the programs of daily use.

The creator's hope is that it will be used to improve people's privacy without violating any law.

To start hidemego in stealth mode to change the MAC Address of the interfaces, use the command:

$ sudo hidemego start -ifaces="enp1s0"

To end the hidemego anonymisation session, use the command:

$ sudo hidemego stop

NOTES:

- <interface(s)> MUST BE ADDED as comma separed list or as string if you need to spoof the MAC address of only one interface

Optional hidemego arguments:

Usage of hidemego:

-id int Tor user id. If no value is passed. Hidemego will parse default-torrc to identify user and related id

-ifaces string Interfaces that must change MAC Address (separed by comma)

-no14 Excludes Nodes from 14 eyes countries

-no14p Excludes Nodes from 14 eyes countries plus other dangerous countries

-no5 Excludes Nodes from 5 eyes countries

-no9 Excludes Nodes from 9 eyes countries

-pass string The Tor Control Authentication Password

-cport int Tor Control Port for 127.0.0.1 (default 9052)

-dport int DNS Port (default 5354)

-saport int Socks Authentication Port for 127.0.0.1.0 (default 9151)

-sdport int Socks Destination Port for 127.0.0.1.1 (default 9051)

-tport int Tor Transport Port (default 9040)

-user string Tor process user name. If no value is passed, Hidemego will parse defaults-torrc to identify user

Finding your Tor ID

If the -id flag is not passed to the executable, the software will be able to automatically find the Tor user id automatically using /usr/share/tor/defaults-torrc

If you want to use a custom id, to identify the id to pass as id flag, from the terminal run:

$ id -u (Tor username)

Finding ID of Default Tor User on RHEL/CentOS/Fedora:

$ id -u toranon

Finding ID of Default Tor User on Debian/Ubuntu/Mint:

$ id -u debian-tor

Finding ID of Default Tor User on ARCH:

$ id -u tor
