- <p> - Tor does provide a partial solution in a very specific situation, though. - When you make a connection to a destination that also runs a Tor relay, - Tor will automatically extend your circuit so you exit from that circuit. - So for example if Indymedia ran a Tor relay on the same IP address as - their website, people using Tor to get to the Indymedia website would - automatically exit from their Tor relay, thus getting *better* encryption - and authentication properties than just browsing there the normal way. - </p> - - <p> - We'd like to make it still work even if the service is nearby the Tor - relay but not on the same IP address. But there are a variety of - technical problems we need to overcome first (the main one being "how - does the Tor client learn which relays are associated with which - websites in a decentralized yet non-gamable way?"). - </p> - <hr>
