At best, they provide a *legal* safe space, but it would only take an embassy having their local internet access terminated once or twice before they'd re-consider, absent any agreements which block service providers from doing such. I'd be surprise if such exist, although, it's certainly possible. Assuming we're talking exit nodes, anyway. _______________________________________________ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays
