Of course. Exit nodes are scarce, and 'normal' relays (at least mine) did pick up quite some traffic after a few days. > When bridges > are not "announced", no one will use them - sounds like a real bottleneck. They are announced, just not all to the general public. You have to tell your tor client to use bridges; normally it directly talks to (public) relays. I think it's a relatively small fraction that is actually using bridges; if yours ended up in the pool for manual/social distribution it may take some time until anybody comes around. > Is there some other way to announce the bridge? I don't think it is a good idea to twitter the address. :-) Andreas -- "Totally trivial. Famous last words."
