Tunnels your network requests through a Tor's SOCKS5 proxy server and hides your IP address

Proxy Client for Onion - Chrome Extension for Tor Connectivity

"Proxy Client for Onion" is a Chrome extension that improves user privacy, masking your IP address by rerouting network requests through a local SOCKS5 proxy server running the Tor executable. With its capabilities to dynamically change proxy configuration and block WebRTC IP detection, your browser is secure, preventing your real IP address from leaks. It also allows new IP requests when activated, and doesn't conflict with other running Tor instances.

J'entrave que dalle à la façon de configurer votre appli, un TUTO en Français aurait été TRÈS judicieux quand même.
