Hi Andreas, There is a mailing list for tor & universities: https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-relays-universities/ its not very high traffic and the archives do not hold many e-mails. It's maybe worth to ask there too and to read through the archives. I'd also suggest to check for E

Hello Olaf, OVH, DigitalOcean and Vultr have servers in Singapore. While this would probably add to geographic diversity, I am unsure if it's a good idea to run more relays in those AS. On the other hand, I run several OVH-Relays at different geographi locations. Best regards, Matthias On 09/16

Hi, you can include the following two relays for sure, as they are guaranteed to not change their ip / port: - 1E01B887F7FB61BEFC34FA8D9EA98E4268A8275F (rofltor02) - 41A3C16269C7B63DB6EB741DBDDB4E1F586B1592 (rofltor03) Currently rofltor03 has a traffic cap. I can change it to a long running and

2017-03-14 Thread Matthias Fetzer
Hi Volker, i'd suggest to run a middle-relay at your home line. But be aware, that some servers also block tor-middle relays, regardless of the relay type. Running a middle relay will still have your IP listed in various tor-relay lists. If you run a bridge, most likely, this will not happen. Al

Hi Patrick, I recommend that you just try it. Many people run several instances on the same hardware (even on same VMs) to saturate their line. You can just try if running a second relay will consume more bw. >> - basically, would it have any significant added value to the network? I can stress
