* I can try to promote the GS list, maybe a GS-español list?
* And also help with meetups in Argentina/bs as,
* I dont think that the language is a problem at least for running
relays and exit nodes, the problem we have here is more related to the
legal system, for example if you run an exit node in a hacklab the
police could come with an order and seize ALL the equipement in the lab
for at least 2 or 3 years, this has already happened.
* If you need help traducing things to spanish we can help with that.

tor poor and global south sounds quite peyorative, its kind of like
saying the colonialist north tor meeting.  :(

I can talk about Argentina,  there is a strong community here, some of
the members run relays or exit node  using vpn's or vps. There is an
event called Grog&Tor that has been going for almost 2 years, its kind
of like a cryptoparty but focused on tor, free software and privacy,
this event is done every month. This year there was a talk about tor
exit nodes and the argentinian legal system at the ekoparty[1] (I think
is the biggest security conference in latin america, like a global south
defcon).


cheers!
