Hi again,
what do you think about the idea to restart the torouter project? Is there anybody on the list who is interested in it? Some feedback would be nice …

Hi, my name is Benjamin Keeser. I am a student of computer science (master of software engineering) from Munich, Germany. I support and work in different social movements against suppression and control since many years. Consequently I am interested in the Tor project. Actually I am working with some others from different political media collectives on an book how to protect oneself from total digital surveillance. We already discussed the idea of a router which tunnels all the traffic over Tor. My guidelines in this case were the onion pi project and the freedombox. By chance I realized that there is already a similar project under your maintaince (and I hope this mail is not to late). But there wasn´t any activity since 16 months. What is the reason? Are you planning to continue the project? In our work of making computers of people a little bit safer it would make really sense to have a router which protects users via Tor and also filters recognizable parameters via privoxy. I discussed this point also, because I don´t see a similar project in the near future (the freedombox project also appears not to make this pogress in the next time - which is although a reason for the router project).
In my case I would also combine the router project (GSoC) with my master´s thesis. And my plan is to do a PhD afterwards. So would there be a possibility to give the project a new chance. What do think about this idea?
These are some thoughts about the implementation / further development
stable core features
dont´t reinvent the wheel: there are already some reusable features in tails/freedombox (e.g. dns handling, network filter)
debian hardening / openwrt
implementation of privoxy to obtain a not recognizable fingerprint. >
future: modular system (email-server, file space, webspace, ***relay***), web interface
