Does anyone have a script for periodically updating strick exit nodes lists after running an inspection as per https://tc.gtisc.gatech.edu/bss/2014/r/spoiled-onions-slides.pdf or similar? Looking to help protect against crypto transaction sender redirect attacks.
Trying to maintain a list like this on your own is counterproductive and potentially dangerous:
(A) If you have a private set of relays that you try to avoid, then the resulting difference in path selection can act as a tracking cookie. The more different you are from normal clients, the easier it is to recognize you.
(B) If you discover relays that are modifying traffic, then you should tell the bad-relays list, so they can kick them out of the network to keep everybody safer: https://blog.torproject.org/how-report-bad-relays https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/ReportingBadRelays
