Explanation

sshocks5 will use ssh to connect to a host/port of your choosing and open a SOCKS5 proxy on localhost:5030 (configurable). Then, it will use networksetup to modify your Wi-Fi (configurable) network to make use of the proxy. Once you press Ctrl+C in the terminal, it will stop your network from using SOCKS5 Proxy and then kill the SSH process.

sshocks5 will use sudo to modify the network configuration.
