Censorship Simulator Virtual Machine GSoC
Hi Johannes, I wanted to introduce you and your GSoC project to the list. The project is about building a virtual machine based censorship simulator. The goal is to have a way to test if the ooniprobe tests are working properly by simulating the network of a censor. Our goal is to actually run the software that a censor would be running (e.x. squid, bluecoat proxy sg va, etc.) and detect it's presence in an as real as possible environment. Johannes and Klaudiu analyzed a bit of the possible technological solutions to making this here: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/OONI/CensorshipSimulator. I think that the outcome is that we will be using Vagrant, meaning that this simulator could then be run on OSX, Linux and Windows. The kind of networks we will be creating are those where: * There is a transparent HTTP proxy * There is NAT * Certain sites are blocked thanks to HTTP headers * RST packets are sent when connecting to certain hosts * DNS based censorship is present If you have some ideas of things you would like to see in this, add ideas to this ticket: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/7233, or create a page in the trac wiki nested under https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/OONI/CensorshipSimulator. ~ Art.
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi *, hi Arturo, Thank you for the introduction. My name is Johannes and I will be working on a vagrant-based solution for internet censorship simulation. With vagrant being a powerful but easy-to-use tool, I expect to make some progress really soon. I will keep you in the loop via mail and I will also blog about my progress on https://blog.weltraumpflege.org . You can reach me best via mail [0] or xmpp[1], but also hang around on the IRC networks Freenode, euIRC and OFTC [2]. So, thank you all for having me - I'm really looking forward to working with you all!
