🔄 Utilizing the Tor Network to Circumvent IP-Based Rate Limits. The article discusses methods for bypassing IP-based rate limits encountered during bug hunting or penetration testing, highlighting the effectiveness of the Tor Network as an alternative to traditional VPNs or IP rotation techniques. It outlines a step-by-step process for configuring Tor on Linux, including commands to ensure continuous IP rotation. By employing an infinite while loop, users can maintain a dynamic IP address, which is crucial for evading various forms of IP blocking, such as brute force protection and API rate limiting. The article also suggests using programming languages like Python or Bash to send requests through the Tor proxy for creating proof of concept (POC) reports in bug bounty programs.
