- tricolon 15y agoWhat is the best way to track TOR exit nodes?
- Monotoko 15y agoThere's a nice updating list here: http://proxy.org/tor.shtml http://proxy.org/tor.shtml
- joshu 15y agothere's a DNSBL. i believe it's possible to run a node and just query it for the exit nodes, but I'm not sure.
- zargon 15y agoTor (not TOR) uses directory servers to keep track of middle and exit nodes. You can get the list directly or via a variety of front-ends. See https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq-abuse.html.en#Bans https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq-abuse.html.en#Bans
- kanamekun 15y agoThat's a really clever way to incorporate TOR as an input, without just disabling all TOR-enabled accounts. Were you able to get a bayesian algorithm to learn whether specific users were likely to be spammers or trolls? (As opposed to specific posts.) I'm guessing this isn't easy to do, since I get spammed on other services on a regular basis (e.g. Twitter spammers will setup new accounts and spam on a regular basis).
