* Chuck Peters:
I have been trying to download the new Tails the past week via torrent and the tracker seems to be broken.
I know it isn't a good idea to use torrents over tor, but why doesn't torproject.org distribute the TBB, Tails and other tor related software with torrents?
We discussed this in the past [0] and Moritz wrote a script [1] that generates the torrent files for the bundles. The only issue was that with a public tracker, it's trivial to find out who is participating in the download, and therefore, who is downloading the bundles.
(You can also request bundles from GetTor which is back in operation [2], or using Satori.)
