Although it does not work through Tor, it happily works through Windscribe VPN and a direct connection. I am trying to connect to Zoom through its mobile app using Orbot's built-in VPN to connect to Tor. However, when I do that, Zoom just sits there 'Preparing the meeting' forever.

In order to connect my school chromebook to Tor, I have to do a whole bunch of complicated networking wisardry that I can't even get to work and that nobody seems willing to help me with, so I think it'll be safer and easier to just use my phone. (I'm NOT trying to hide my entire identity, just my IP.) I'm using my phone because I am required by my school to use a webcam, which eliminates my personal laptop. (I don't think my adversary has the resources to pay off a VPN provider to leak my data, but I'm just trying to be cautious.) Whereas with Tor, one entity knows who I am, one knows what I'm doing, and neither know who I am, making it significantly more difficult for my IP to get exposed. I do not trust VPNs because they are a single point that knows both my IP and what I'm doing, and therefore have the ability to leak said data. I want to use Tor because it will hide my IP address in case Zoom has an exploit or leak, or in case I get social engineered to click a link that goes to an IP logger. An adversary might appear in a Zoom call that I have to attend, so I'm trying to hide my IP address because it's tied to my home address and I don't want my adversary to know where I live.
