If you have a budget of $500/mo (EUR or USD, roughly) that could be used to strengthen Tor network, what would you use it for and why? Some ideas: Run new relays: Lease VPS or colocate hardware yourself Fund existing operators:
I prefer running them on your own as the goal is to have a distributed network. The more power single operators have, the more vulnerable the network will be. Attacks also have more impact. There are certain countries (e.g. Germany, USA) that have many relays and many other countries that have not a single one. Operate them at places where not many exist, e.g. countries that have no (exit) relays or in ASNs that don't have some. -- Gruß Marco Send unsolicited bulk mail to 1746423003muell@cartoonies.org
