to route Signal over
#TOR via@guardianproject#Orbot, does the Android device need to be rooted? -
No, Orbot has an "Apps VPN" mode that can route any app over Tor, without requiring root / cc
@whispersystems -
That said, only Signal messages (including picture and voice) will work over Tor, not Signal phone calls / cc
@whispersystems -
but unfortunately it can't run at the same time as another VPN like with Facebook.

Facebook has a VPN?

and that is why obfuscation after encryption might not be such a terrible idea!
#Egypt -
most of the obfuscation protocols are designed for TCP, while signal is using UDP. That doesn't mean no one though
