Helped create tooling and reached out to the largest operators to improve AROI setups. https://aroivalidator.1aeo.com and https://github.com/1aeo/AROIValidator In last 48 hours, ~1k more relays are now validated, total around 3k out of 10k relays (~30%). Chasing down another 500. Still seeing missing validation from larger operators: tuxli: 13 out of 95. Error: Fingerprint not found in rsa-fingerprint.txt (13 relays) 0xcc01.de: 74 out of 74. Error: DNS resolution failure - domain does not resolve (74 relays) relayon: 46 out of 46. Error: SSL/TLS handshake failure (46 relays) digitalcourage.de: 30 out of 30. Error: 404 Not Found for .well-known/tor-relay/rsa-fingerprint.txt www.f3netze.de: 1 out of 25: Error: DNS lookup failed for subdomain artikel5ev.de: 24 out of 24.

It looks like all the newly added relays, or at least all the ones that I was looking at, have shut down. I suppose whoever put them up has now realized that they have been detected. Will all the fingerprints be blacklisted anyway?
Actually, the relays are still running, at least at this moment. (You can check this yourself by telneting to their ORPort.)
They appear down on the metrics page because they are no longer in the consensus, because a threshold of the directory authorities are rejecting them (as of about 30 hours ago).
