My questions here are only two: do you think this project is not needed anymore now we have a lot of recent data about censorship in other countries (OONI Explorer) and other tools? If I develop this software (I will probably do it even if the answer to the first question is "yes"), can I ask the Tor community (tor-dev?) for help in testing and improving proposals?
Hi Lucia,
I still think that this could be useful. To make it useful, however, a bunch of boring engineering and usability challenges must be tackled: the executable should be self-contained, portable, and easy to use. I say "boring" because these challenges are usually not what students find very interesting.
It's certainly fine to ask tor-dev@ for feedback. I think several people, me included, would be happy to provide feedback once you have a prototype. Good luck!
Cheers, Philipp
