Instructions for connecting to irc via onion address

doc/EN/usage.org

 /connect yourdomainname
 /join freedombone
 #+END_SRC
+
+You can also connect via Tor, and this will help to protect your metadata from mass surveillance and will also allow you to connect even if you are behind a hostile firewall. Note however, that connecting to popular servers such as Freenode is hard to do via Tor (they may block exit nodes to try to stop trolls), so you might want to have a special irssi config file for only connecting to your server.
+
+Look up the onion address for IRC on your Freedombone system.
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC bash
+ssh username@domain -p 2222
+sudo control
+#+END_SRC
+
+Go to the /About/ screen and look for the IRC onion address, then exit back to your local system.
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC bash
+exit
+#+END_SRC
+
+Once you know the onion address for the IRC server you can then connect to it with:
+
+#+BEGIN_SRC bash
+usewithtor irssi
+/server add -auto myaddress.onion 6697
+/ignore * CTCPS
+/connect myaddress.onion
+/join freedombone
+#+END_SRC
