FYI, Jacob Applebaum just asked[1] people to set up TOR bridges using a new protocol called obfsproxy[2]. 1: https://twitter.com/#!/ioerror/status/167922546807

- oneofthose 15y agoI would be willing to set up a bridge but how can we get the bridge IPs to those who need them?
- tshtf 15y agoSee https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2012-February/023070.html https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2012-Februar... Currently if you run such a bridge, you'll either need to manually tell us (via email to tor-assistants at torproject.org ) about it or you'll need to share these bridges with people you want to help directly. It's a pain and we're working on it.
- Monotoko 15y agoWould a TOR exit relay be better than a bridge?
- nfriedly 15y agoIn general, yes. In this specific scenario, without the obfsproxy bridges, people in Iran may not be able to connect to TOR at all, in which case an exit node won't help them very much.
