[tor-dev] Advice regarding Cloudflare

I could see why cloudflare is annoyed with you, you are annoying activists from their perspective, although you folks aren't chaining yourselves to coal power plants . But I also use Tor from time to time, so I'll offer some advice.

On the Tor side, a way to minimize abuse is for exit nodes not to allow multiple IP addresses from a single circuit. This would make web crawling with Tor expensive, although it will disable the ability for a single tab to use a single exit node.

Another method is to request a sort of proof of work on the Cloudflare side. Given current protocols, the simplest would be to require ECDHE with secp521r1 with each Tor connection and disallow unencrypted connections. It will be more bearable than a captcha.
