Bots, love 'em or hate 'em?
by starlight.2015q3＠binnacle.cx 07 Sep '15

My relay says it receives about 50k v1/v2/v3 connections each day to the 60k v4 connections that come in. "Entry-ips" says it has about 35k guard- clients. Blutmagie says there are no pre-0.2.4 relays talking anything other than v4. So I'm left thinking that 95% or more of the bandwidth consumption and client count is from crusty old botnet bots running ancient versions of the Tor daemon. But all that bot traffic creates a lot of statistical "background noise," and so may be providing a service in making it more difficult for advanced adversaries to perform traffic correlation analysis. Thoughts anyone?

My VPS hoster (Zappie Host) understood!

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Hi all, When I asked my reverse DNS to be added for my Tor exit relay, they said that Tor nodes were disallowed due to the ToS, but didn't stop me. I messaged back a few times (in normal UK time, 3AM over there) and I got this reply: 'Hey there Thank you firstly of understanding our position that in almost most cases the end user that runs the tor exit does without a care in the world leaving the provider fully liable for all the crap that comes with it. In our ToS we state "any tor nodes" simply to cover our asses as its (for the most part) not worth the hassle and misunderstanding later down the track. Yes a relay node is fine. feel free to continue with that. If you want to continue with an exit node what I will do is edit the WHOIS details and put in for that specific IP that you are the operated the IP address as a Tor Exit node. (SWIP the IP) Please let me know if this is something you are interested in this plan or just settle for a relay node as is. Regards and thank you for understanding Adam' If you sign up and are wishing to run a Tor exit relay, PLEASE contact them to set it all up for you so that you will be classified as a Tor relay :P -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBCAAGBQJV7kYDAAoJEHukJMVt72wmclEP/1jjw+mvLldLFq0Q38c7+QRl U16jrWdf9r2ngiDFEEJAYo35mZB48K+80KUjLdKdycn2FxjYFZSpTubWuJYQN5/b NV/gHTeLKhIWTTGFBEHwVSvY71BzwrBcWO2M2Np7ax75TgYgd9KglIgyqc5ORzAW NaOtAOIcuRuRbeOd2+TKeoqqYmhyHA+yHRxI6tCE4ZIMdpQmx9JQ5r2uH0OAgxJZ dDxGqjNJEUoBAoftMx2qxCX73F6X4k9FJ5srIMQQHU1RTmbVdD/ehLs0uPCSAdpZ VB4mhtrKx6prZ6kWIpFPucBbhRF7kGzb5Er8n36R1eb50HgbA+ZIfHLoo3lEHUMr OIVLdtkIzENNetpe2dZTbOE5307fuPaAOYgJbJjVeAOBaJ1mirI9CvHGF2VbuiVy PIuyUXqT/UPfaxYP6EnhOX3tFnGeBQwYzp9l8o5NFBsnn+CEOuIh0C2268hd9vny be4xSLsO0wqpE61s+2o8qzx2LEcd1Q+pbLEboa7nP3+iQnz4zA7qvuTmg22vzrlw vSLdsboOslsFEJ9VhCe2j/L7DZVKALGxOHK4XJDBj6Cfab1cDTcQw2hvSaTLOhVC tcxKQiw3twXsNQe3kiIIExcnOp7/XketBkAaYTavFFOlJkGAerkMWQCc2T1V+cdg chO8fJUW9KdXTkiAeCPj =WpHn -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Does Setting Up a Bridge Relay Disable the Browser?
by Kenneth Freeman 07 Sep '15

07 Sep '15

This may be a naïve question, but I've fired up my 64-bit Debian box now that the nights are cool, and editing the torrc to establish a bridge relay borks the browser. I provide anonymity much more than I use it myself, but is the bridge relay copacetic? Thanks in advance.

tor-relays] Experience hosting exit relay with Costa Rica Servers: crservers.com

You might check for existing relays in their system. This Robtex seems to have much of their network, which they appear to lease from other providers: https://www.robtex.com/en/advisory/dns/cr/crservers/ And while they advertise many network blocks, it appears it's all slices of just a few large allocations: http://www.cidr-report.org/cgi-bin/as-report?v=4&as=AS3790 http://www.cidr-report.org/cgi-bin/as-report?v=4&as=AS2385 You can download CSV of all relays from https: // torstatus dot blutmagie dot de and look for matches. Otherwise, call or email them and ask how they feel about Tor exits. Hosting is competitive and if you run a relay with proper contact info and reverse DNS they might not mind. Ask them to automatically forward any complaints they receive to you.
