Hi,
I installed obfs proxy [tor-pluggable-transports-browser-
2.4.11-alpha-2_en-US.exe] from
https://www.torproject.org/projects/obfsproxy.
While launching this Tor obfs proxy browser, I am getting
high light to upgrade this browser with latest Tor browser bundle *2.3.25-6.

Yelp is based in San Francisco. So is Pinterest.
Tor 0.2.4.12-alpha moves Tor forward on several fronts: it starts the
process for lengthening the guard rotation period, makes directory
authority opinions in the consensus a bit less gameable, makes socks5
username/password circuit isolation actually work, and fixes a wide
variety of other issues.
Even if you aren't in the US, you can raise awareness of the issues that
CISPA will cause. Writing op-eds is a good way to bring the issue to local
communities who might otherwise not know about the negative affects this
will have if passed.
If you *are* in the US or a US citizen/resident liv

Actually, I've talked to cloudflare in the recent past. They don't
block Tor per se, they rate limit connections/request per IP address.

In situations like these, a phone call is worth five hundred online

Hello Everyone,
Someone I know said that he read that the project was creating a
replacement for TrueCrypt. Can anyone verify this as accurate or not? If
it is accurate, how far along is the work and where can I find more
information?
Thanks!

Griffin is 100% correct about the leverage you can get from a phone
call rather than other forms of communication with Congrescritters.

our allies EFF, ACLU and others. The bill did just (within the past

I use Cloudflare. When I experience hacking, spamming scraping or any other cpu
sucking activity, I use Cloudflares API and ban the IP then unban 7 days later.
If the IP falls in a pre-identified 'dirty' range, I never unban it. Based on
my logs I had the distinct impression Cloudflare did not

I don't mind this approach too much. At least it leaves
some room for legitimate users to find exits. Restores
the state to open after some time. And is a bit more mature
tool in that, if y

Tor exits were not banned prior to their use for abuse. At the point

It's in the ticket system as #8725, and I was able to duplicate this bug.
Somehow preventing outside resource_uri access or pretending to be a
non-firefox browser would obviate this quirk.
