I haven't looked in detail at the LOIC design, but: a) If you're trying to send UDP packets (or anything other than correctly formed TCP streams), it won't work because Tor doesn't transport that. https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq-abuse#DDoS b) If you're trying to open a bazillion TCP connections or something, you'll likely end up DoSing the Tor network way before your target site notices. Or to phrase it more simply: "don't do that and also it wouldn't do what you want." --Roger _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
