Is mumble secure over tor?
I've used Mumble, with data transmission in UDP mode, on OpenVPN (in TCP mode) through Tor. Given that you, or someone whom you trust, are running the Mumble server, and that traffic is routed by VPN through Tor, I believe that it's secure.
Is it the best to use for Voip call on tor?
I think so. Because it can use UDP through the VPN tunnel, there's virtually no break-up. Latency is high (1-2 seconds) but that's just a fact of using Tor. Voice quality is better than typical cellphone. Mumble was expressly designed for high-latency connections, so it has good interactive tools for optimizing voice quality.
What are the other options?
I've heard good things about Jabber. However, all SIP apps depend on third party servers. And SIP servers are much harder to set up than Mumble servers. -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
