Fetch RSS feeds via Tor (!308) · Merge requests · briar / briar

akwizgran requested to merge socks-socket into master Sep 05, 2016

This patch replaces jsocks with our own minimal SOCKS 5 implementation, which is compatible with Android's OpenSSL hacks (see discussion on #599 (closed) for the horrifying details). This allows us to use OkHttp over Tor to fetch RSS feeds.

It turns out that SOCKS 5 without authentication is a really simple protocol: https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc1928

Closes #599 (closed).
