Hi nusenu. Yup, a CenturyLink technician is coming in a few hours to restore my connection. Note to self: losing home internet connectivity sucks.

Hi Damian, it appears to be the case that wiki changes are no longer send to this ML. Could you have a look? https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-wiki-changes thank you! nusenu -- https://mastodon.social/@nusenu twitter: @nusenu_

trac.tpo issues
by nusenu 24 Dec '17

24 Dec '17

Hi, in the last few days trac says occasionally "Service Unavailable" and right now trac times out. Since we are currently (attempting to) work on a wiki page, this is somewhat blocking our edits. Has trac some known issue? I'm looking forward to a reachable and stable trac :) thanks, nusenu -- https://mastodon.social/@nusenu twitter: @nusenu_

Rust rewrite help
by Ivan Mandura 24 Dec '17

24 Dec '17

Hello, My name is Ivan and I would like to help out with Rust rewrite. I'm a huge fan of both Rust and TOR. Recently, I spent some time in China and it made me realize the importance of a project like TOR. Have experience with low-level code, being in DB industry for a few years now. Any pointers would be of huge help :) Thanks, Ivan

Hi, How does the Tor Project deal with the malicious exit relays. Do you still run exitmap or something better?

Using bridges in different /16s
by teor 21 Dec '17

21 Dec '17

Hi all, If bridges users configure at least two bridges in different /16s, it makes it harder to run some kinds of statistical attacks on the paths that they build through the Tor network. (For example, working out that relays in that /16 are never used by the client.) For context, see this Twitter thread: https://twitter.com/twbtwb/status/943974051000721408 I think that: * most of the current default Tor Browser bridges are in at least two /16s, except for the single-bridge pluggable transports, * almost all the 3-bridge sets given out by BridgeDB are in at least two /16s. Should we: * document this as a recommendation? Where? * add code to Tor that warns when it isn't true? (Maybe not?) * make sure all of the Tor Browser bridges are across two or three /16s? * make sure BridgeDB gives out bridge sets in two or three /16s? T

path selection constraints: /16 subnet rule when using bridges
by nusenu 20 Dec '17

20 Dec '17

Hi, does the following also apply if a Tor users chooses to use a bridge? > - We do not choose more than one router in a given /16 subnet [1] Will tor ensure that the relays are not in the same /16 netblock with the bridge? thanks, nusenu [1] https://gitweb.torproject.org/torspec.git/tree/path-spec.txt#n239 -- https://mastodon.social/@nusenu twitter: @nusenu_

Tor and (open) SDN
by neutron 19 Dec '17

19 Dec '17

Hello tor developers, I'm neutron a Tor user and operator of some hidden-services. During the next year I will write my master thesis about a software defined network related project. Currently I'm thinking about which research topic I could choose and Tor came up to my mind. I'm interested in getting to know what's out there and if there are any approaches to combine Tor and open SDN*? And what would help to research in that area to support the tor project? I already came across: https://shadow.github.io/ I will be around at 34c3 and would love to have a chat about interesting approaches, projects and ideas. Thank you for your time :) cheers neutron * If I get the SDN terms right, tor is an overlay SDN. I would like to think in the direction to combine tor with Open SDN.
