Why is do you suspect this?

It makes sense to me that you would want to hide from your ISP and whatever service you're using that you're using Tor.

More complex =/= more secure. Tor, Whonix, Tails, et all have sections in their wikis covering potential tunneling setups and their thoughts on efficacy and rationale behind them.

From the Tor wiki:

> You -> X --> Tor --> X

> No research whether this is technically possible. Remember that this is likely a very poor plan because [#You-Tor-X you -> Tor -> X] is already a really poor plan.

Fair enough. While I'm comfortable saying I'm more competent at such things then a layperson, I'm definitely not actually competent.
