Hi!

Thank you for the answer, Mark!

Does the tor process shut down before the crash reporter can
> do its thing?

No, it doesn't (it waits for crash reporter), I also checked Google
breakpad, it uses libcurl, so it supports SOCKS, I hardcoded our IP and
port, but still haven't built it.

Sorry for delay, I busy with internship interview stuff :/

Kind regards,
Nur-Magomed (nmago)
