Yes you’re right. Tor fixes this. Look into it, I’m pretty sure we already have a few tor relays too. But it’s easy to set up a private one.

I am not confident Tor doesn't allow a Stateless relay to be placed between you and your own Tor relay. For me, the safe way is to hardcode the relay's pubkey in the app to make sure only that key can decode incoming payloads and the relay only take encrypted msg from that key

You don’t know how tor works

Probably. But I also can't find proof that somebody can't put a server in between my phone and my server. https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/215155/how-does-tor-protect-against-mitm-attacks-between-the-client-and-relay-nodes

I remember a long time ago using a VPN app and setting it up to use TOR, essentially tunneling all connections. would this help in this case?

🤔 maybe you’re right
