Transparent Tor Proxy (TTP) is a Linux CLI tool designed to intercept all outgoing network traffic and force it through the Tor network using nftables . Version 0.3.0 introduces a major architectural shift focused on system integrity and forensic invisibility, transitioning the application to a fully volatile runtime. The Challenge Classic transparent proxy implementations often suffer from severe state management issues. System configurations, such as /etc/resolv.conf , are typically overwritten directly. Furthermore, the default system Tor daemon ( tor.service ) is usually hijacked, leading to permission conflicts and disrupting any pre-existing background Tor relays. The v0.3.0 Solution: Amnesia Core The application core has been redesigned to operate almost entirely in volatile memory. Volatile Standard Core : All runtime metadata, lock files, and logs are now stored in /run/ttp , which utilizes a tmpfs mount. This ensures zero physical traces are left on the host's physical disk after a power cycle.…
