What's the recommended way to run 0.4.7 on armhf? > The package repository [deb.torproject.org] does not offer 32-bit ARM > architecture (armhf) images (yet). https://support.torproject.org/apt/tor-deb-repo/ Debian has 0.4.7 in bullseye-backports. But Raspbian doesn't have bullseye-backports: http://raspbian.raspberrypi.org/raspbian/dists/ -- ilf If you upload your address book to "the cloud", I don't want to be in it.

Wrong "first seen" flag for bridges at metrics.torproject.org
by telekobold 23 Aug '23

23 Aug '23

Hi together, I have an issue regarding the "first seen" flag at metrics.torproject.org: It is definitely wrong for my two bridges - both dates are much too close in the past. For one of the bridges, it seems to correspond to the last signing key renewal, for the other bridge, it seems to correspond to the penultimate signing key renewal. Has anyone observed similar behavior for its relay? (I found it meaningful to first ask here before creating an issue at [*]). [*] https://gitlab.… [View More]

Help Turkmens to bypass Internet censorship: run an obfs4 bridge!
by gus 02 Aug '23

02 Aug '23

Dear Relay operators community, The parliamentary elections in Turkmenistan are coming up very soon on March 26th[1], and the Turkmen government has tightened internet censorship and restrictions even more. In the last few months, the Anti-censorship community has learned that different pluggable transports, like Snowflake, and entire IP ranges, have been blocked in the country. Therefore, running a bridge on popular hosting providers like Hetzner, Digital Ocean, Linode, and AWS won't help as … [View More]

Receiving abuse reports for Non-Exit Relay
by admin＠prsv.ch 01 Aug '23

01 Aug '23

Hello all, In the past 24 hrs, I have been receiving complaints from my hosting provider that they're receiving hundreds of abuse reports related to port scanning. I have no clue why I'm all of the sudden receiving abuse reports when this non-exit relay has been online for months without issues. In addition, I have other non-exit relays hosted by the same provider with no issues and more across other providers. I proceeded to reinstall the OS and reconfigure Tor. I was then quickly … [View More]
