Hi,
Hi,
I’ve been running a bridge for over a year and noticed recently that the fingerprint shown in ARM (and that actually works when connecting to the bridge) differs from the fingerprint displayed for my bridge on both Atlas and Globe. Any thoughts on why this would happen and how to fix it? I’m assuming the fingerprint published on Atlas & Globe is the same fingerprint that will be distributed by bridges.torproject, is that correct?
The fingerprint you see in Globe and Atlas is the SHA-1 hash of the bridge fingerprint.
Apologies if this is a common question… I’ve only recently joined the mailing list and couldn’t find a way to search the archives other than browsing.
There used to be a document describing the sanitization process of bridge data, but since the remake of metrics.torproject.org it is not linked from there anymore, I don't know if it still exists.
Anyone one of the sanitizations is to not publish the bridges fingerprint. Instead a SHA-1 hash of the fingerprint.
Karsten definitely knows much more about this.
