Are there countries where using Tor is illegal?
by Cristian Consonni 11 May '25

11 May '25

Hi, (Sorry if this question has already been asked in the past, feel free to point me to the relevant resources.) I know that the legal FAQs by the EFF state that: «we believe that running a Tor relay — including an exit relay that allows people to anonymously send and receive traffic — is legal under U.S. law.»[1] I also know there is a list of countries for which there is legislation that exclude communication service providers from liability. They are indicated in the Legal of the Tor Exit Guidelines page[2], they are USA, Germany, Netherlands, Austria, France, and Sweden. >From some articles in the press[3a][3b] it may be illegal - depending on how you interpret the wording[*] - to use Tor (and other technologies such as VPNs or proxies) in the UAE, with fines ranging in the millions of dirhams (hundreds of thousand of dollars). A couple of weeks ago it was discussed - on this list as well - that a law was introduced to the state parliament to ban Tor[4a][4b]. This follows a case of some months ago of a Russian Tor exit node operator being arrested for inciting mass riots and terrorism[4c][4d]. The idea of blocking VPNs or Tor seems to have already been considered in the past[4e]. This infographic about pluggable transports[5] suggests access to the Tor network is censored or limited in China, Uzbekistan, Iran, and Kazakhstan. Tor being censored orblocked may be different from it being illegal. What about other countries? Is there a place where I can find more about this topic?

PSA: fpcentral / forrestii retirement notice
by Matthew Finkel 21 Oct '21

21 Oct '21

Hello! The service "fpcentral" (https://fpcentral.tbb.torproject.org/) will be retired on October 20th 2021 (6 months from now), along with the server it is running on (forrestii). We do not have the resources to maintain the service. Besides, other, and better alternatives have emerged since then, like, for example the EFF's Cover Your Tracks service (https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/, previously known as the Panopticlick) and TorZillaPrint (https://arkenfox.github.io/TZP/) On the retirement date, the server will be shutdown, rendering the service completely unavailable. A week later, the server will be destroyed, and its backups will be destroyed 30 days after the retirement date. The Internet Archive has an up to date copy of the site's static assets and will be able to keep it for posterity. It is recommended that you fix any bookmarks, links, or other references you have to this site. If you have concerns about the retirement or wish to delay the procedure, you can add a comment to the tracking issue (https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/issues/40009) or contact TPA: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/wikis/policy/tpa-rfc-2-support…

Metrics-web 1.4.1 released
by Silvia/Hiro 21 Sep '21

21 Sep '21

Hi, I have released metrics-web 1.4.0 and made a bug fix release for 1.4.1. Metrics-web aggregates publicly available data about the Tor network and visualizes that data on a website. This release was a long time in the making and has a lot of contribution from different people, which I hope will continue for the following releases. People that contribute to this release are: Ana Custura Gaba Georg Koppen Hiro Iain Learmoth Karsten Loesing # Changes in version 1.4.1 - 2020-09-21 * Medium changes - Fix how v3 statistics are extrapolated. See: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/network-health/metrics/statistics/-/issue… * Minor changes - Fix a few copy paste issues in relay search overloaded banner # Changes in version 1.4.0 - 2020-09-20 * Medium changes - Improve runtime performance of the hidserv module by storing extrapolated statistics even if computed network fractions are zero, to avoid re-processing these statistics over and over. - Extract directory authority bytes per day in the bwhist module. - Rewrite insert_bwhist in SQL to improve performance of the bwhist module. - Estimate relay users by country based on responses to directory requests to reduce the overall effect of binning and to make relay and bridge user estimates more comparable. - Estimate bridge users by country based on requests by country, if available, to get more accurate numbers than those obtained from unique IP address counts. - Update to metrics-lib 2.19.0 and ExoneraTor 4.4.0. - Switch from processing Torperf .tpf to OnionPerf analysis .json files. - Add Onion Service v3 statistics. - Add overloaded relay information by displaying an amber dot next to the relay nickname in relay search. - Update throughput calculation for Onionperf transfers. * Minor changes - Make Jetty host configurable. - Configure a base URL in order to turn ExoneraTor's permanent links into https:// links. - Set default locale `US` at the beginning of the execution. - Set default time zone `UTC` at the beginning of the execution. - Simplify logging configuration. You can find the release at: https://dist.torproject.org/metrics-web/1.4.0/ https://dist.torproject.org/metrics-web/1.4.1/ You can find the sources at: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/network-health/metrics/website/-/tree/met… https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/network-health/metrics/website/-/tree/met… Thanks, hiro _______________________________________________ tor-project mailing list tor-project(a)lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-project

upcoming change in mailing lists configurations
by Antoine Beaupré 14 Sep '21

14 Sep '21

Hi, TL;DR: we are going to enable DMARC workarounds on Mailman mailing lists, which should improve deliverability. You may need to change your mailbox filters. # What is happening? We are going to change the configuration of all Mailman mailing lists to set the `dmarc_moderation_action` to `Munge From`. This will change the `From` header of outgoing email from mailing lists (such as this one) from, say: From: "Antoine Beaupré" <anarcat(a)torproject.org> .. to something like: From: Antoine Beaupre via tor-project <tor-project(a)lists.torproject.org> # Why are we doing this? This is because some email providers comply with the DMARC standard. To give an example, say provider example.com says that only them is allowed to send email from that domain and a user(a)example.com sends an email to one of our mailing lists. It's possible that this email then ends up at provider user(a)test.test, which, when it looks at the DMARC policy, decides to refuse the email because example.com doesn't allow lists.torproject.org to impersonate it. The net effect of this is that user(a)test.test will not get the email (at best) or (at worst!) get unsubscribed from the mailing list even though their email provider is actually complying with the email standard. A longer discussion of this happened in the issue tracker, here: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/issues/19914 # When? This change will be performed in one week. Tests have been going since August 24th on the tor-relays@ lists and it has actually solved issues there, while not causing any other problems. # How? TPA will actually change the configuration on all lists, in the backend. List admins wishing their list to be excluded can notify us by replying to this email or opening a ticket in the TPA issue tracker, as usual: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/tpa/team/-/issues/new A. -- Antoine Beaupré torproject.org system administration
