Blocking bittorrent
by kagaminesama 19 Jan '21

19 Jan '21

Hi, How do you block bittorrent nowadays? I read this page: https://gitlab.torproject.org/legacy/trac/-/wikis/BlockingBittorrent but http://www.trackon.org/api/all doesn't work anymore because the domain is expired. Do you know any alternatives? Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com) Secure Email.

OrNetStats: Operator Level Graphs added
by nusenu 18 Jan '21

18 Jan '21

Hi, I've added new operator level pages with an interactive graph showing the aggregated guard/exit probability and advertised bandwidth over time across all relays for a given operator. This should allow you to see whether your bandwidth and fractions are growing or decreasing. You can - zoom within the graph to a specific time window (horizontal drag and drop), - change the scale on the y axis (vertical drag and drop) - zoom to a specific area (by selecting a rectangle) or use the … [View More]

Bridge Setup
by San Shi 13 Jan '21

13 Jan '21

Hello, I'm following the bridge setup for windows after not being able to start a tor browser for some reason and having some difficulty with the last step. After running tor.exe -f torrc, there is no notice file appearing where it should be, and Tor still seems to fail to setup. In the torrc.txt file I modified the "ORPort TODO1" and "ServerTransportListenAddr obfs4 0.0.0.0:TODO2" by replacing TODO1 and TODO2 with numbers greater than 1024 and less than 9000. I assume either I messed up … [View More]

Introducing new bridge status page
by Philipp Winter 12 Jan '21

12 Jan '21

As part of our ongoing effort to reimplement BridgeDB, we now have a bridge status page that shows if a bridge's pluggable transports work: https://bridges.torproject.org/status?id=FINGERPRINT FINGERPRINT is your bridge's fingerprint or its hashed fingerprint -- either works. The backend tests bridges every 18 hours by making a tor process fetch the bridge's descriptor. Tor bridges will soon log a URL pointing to this status page: https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/tor/-/issues/30477 … [View More]

Exit node in spain
by irr4z 11 Jan '21

11 Jan '21

Hello, everybody, Quickly, I write from Barcelona, I am interested in contributing to tor with exit nodes, but I am concerned about legal issues. I see that there is only 1 active exit node in Spain, and I wonder if it is so dangerous in my country :-) Any comment or feedback is welcome. Thanks and beers to everyone! Irr4z

Config question
by r1610091651 11 Jan '21

11 Jan '21

Hi Recently upgraded to 4.4.6 and noticed new (for me) entry in tor logs: Jan 11 09:24:28.000 [notice] While bootstrapping, fetched this many bytes: This message gets repeated every 6 hours, while there is little extra info added, as it relates to bootstrap / start-up process. I already have "AvoidDiskWrites 1" active in torrc. Is there a way to disable this extra logging? Thanks

Some ContactInfo Spec Adoption Stats
by nusenu 06 Jan '21

06 Jan '21

Hi, it is great to see that just 2-3 months after publishing version 2 of the ContactInfo Information Sharing Spec [1] there are already over 100 tor relays (>10% exit probability) making use of it, to allow for automated verification of the url field in the ContactInfo. If you are still using version 1 of the spec I'd encourage you to update to version 2, which usually isn't a big effort. Due to the adoption I also started to add stats for it to OrNetStats, but since the proofs and … [View More]
