Oniux: Enhanced Tor Network Isolation using Linux Namespaces
2025-05-31

Oniux is a new command-line utility that provides stronger Tor network isolation for third-party applications by leveraging Linux namespaces.

Compared to torsocks, Oniux offers improved security, broader application support (including static binaries), and is built using Rust, leveraging Arti and onionmasq for a more robust Tor experience for privacy-conscious developers.
