> Millions of people around the world use Tor every day to protect<br>
> themselves from surveillance and censorship. While the Tor Browser and<br>
> its protocol are widely known, the backbone of the Tor ecosystem, its<br>
> extensive network of volunteer relays, is often subject to speculation<br>
> and misinformation. The Tor Project is dedicated to supporting this<br>
> network and fostering a vibrant, diverse community of relay operators.<br>
> <br>
> This talk will focus on our efforts to maintain a healthy network and<br>
> community, and detect and mitigate attacks -- all with the help of<br>
> metrics and analysis of usage patterns. By illustrating how we collect<br>
> safe-enough metrics for an anonymity network, we will offer insights<br>
> into how we identify unusual activity and other noteworthy events on the<br>
> network. We will also discuss our ongoing strategies for addressing<br>
> current and future network health challenges.<br>
> <br>
> If you are interested in understanding the inner workings of the Tor<br>
> network and its relay community and how we keep this vital ecosystem<br>
