[anti-censorship-team] anti-censorship-team Digest, Vol 43, Issue 1

[ut0znfpg at duck.com]

Hi!  I was wondering if ANY of the dark or deep web browsers featured on the Chrome/Google Play store are trustworthy in and of themselves, and if Tor can be accessed with them, or if any use Tor automatically. I have a Chromebook, and I know that Tor does not work with it as you have yet to develop a version for it. Why is it that I think that it will be impossible to have Tor work safely with Chrome/Chromebooks; because Google is EVIL?!  :-)    Who do you trust for DNS?  What is the world's most private and secure computer? I remember Australia having some cool guys build a n independent computer system, but these would not be available outside of Oz.  Comments?

Hello,

Onbasca[0], a relay bandwidth, has just added support for testing bridges. I 
have modified rdsys to use it[1]. onbasca produces a bandwidth ratio, on how 
fast is a bridge compared to the rest of bridges (1 is the median), and rdsys 
decides if distribute a bridge if the ratio is higher than a configured 
threshold (right now 0.75) or if is jet untested. rdsys does ignore the onbasca

results if there is less then 50% of bridges with high enough ratio to be 
distributed.

As this was needed by a sponsor I have already deployed it in production. I 
wrote a survival guide:
https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/team/-/wikis/Onbasca-Survival-Guide

I tested it and I don't expect much problems, but as I will be AFK next week if

rdsys gives any problem is easy to roll back to the previous version of rdsys 
without onbasca support. I left the previous binary of rdsys backend in 
~/bin/rdsys-backend.old, so rolling back will be running as rdsys user in 
polyanthum:
  systemctl --user stop rdsys-backend
  mv ~/bin/rdsys-backend.old ~/bin/rdsys-backend
  systemdl --user start rdsys-backend
