My setup consists on a single Relay Bridge and two proxy servers. All running minimized installs of . They are all running on terminals to boot!

For our friends at #37C3:

  1. we have public bridges for use if you'd like a fast first hop onto the #Tor network:

https://bridge.emeraldonion.org

  1. we have a linux shell script for deploying #obfs4 bridges if you'd like to create your own private bridge for personal use:

https://github.com/emeraldonion/bridge-management/

EmeraldOnion, to privacy

On this #GivingTuesday, we are launching 10 public @torproject #obfs4 bridges!

We don't expect these bridges to be particularly good at evading #government #censorship since they are in the same IPv4 /24 subnet as our exit relays. Countries like China and Russia undoubtably already block our subnet. However, we think they are a trustworthy (and fast) guard node when configured.

If you'd like to try one of our bridges, we have published them here:

https://bridge.emeraldonion.org

Please consider #donating to U.S. 501(c)(3) tax-deductible #nonprofit Tor network operators before the end of the year:

EmeraldOnion, to debian

Emerald Onion is thankful for less #censorship on the internet.

We've been working on a new bridge management shell script, which aims to make it easier for #tor bridge operators to deploy and manage #obfs4 bridges on #Debian and #Ubuntu systems.

There are several issues I have with @torproject 's :

For once, it's good and convenient but it's filtering options are half broken.

For example https://bridges.torproject.org/bridges/?transport=webtunnel&ipv6=yes will get me a that has , but setting ipv6=no or ipv4=yes doesn't work.

Nor can I add ports=80,443 or port=443&port=80 or similar.

So it would be really cool if one could just query stuff like that [OFC I'm not talking about the CAPTCA, that exist for reasons]...

So please @torproject allow people - if you don't want to change the UI for https://bridges.torproject.org - to at least craft requests that allow users to select and/or as well as regardless inf [, , , or ] and [i.e. 443 & 80] are often the only known working ones!

@torproject And on

https://bridges.torproject.org/bridges/?transport=obfs4&port=443

It does spit out #IPv4 #obfs4 #TorBridges, but only the first does use Port 443...

Definitely gonna set up #Tor, #I2P and #Veilid nodes once I got access to a gigabit connection as well as a #TorSnowflake node routed through dynamic IP endpoints. #Freifunk should also be a thing then. Perhaps a #Signal relay...

Did I miss something cool? 🤔

kkarhan,
@kkarhan@mstdn.social avatar

@Natanox yes, #IPFS node and #BitTorrent tracker as well as [private] #obfs4, #webtunnel and #vanilla @torproject #Bridges and OFC relays...

A few major gripes I have with @tails is how not only that their #GitLab is approval-only, preventing me from submitting issues, but that their documentation is incomplete at best some functionality is crippled intentionally and some weird decisions result in Catch 22 scenarios...

Which is sad because I do want #Tails to be good if not better than what I've to currently deploy instead of it.

kkarhan,
@kkarhan@mstdn.social avatar

It's not as if I don't know why @tails chose to be that restrictive but it's quite sad that one's kinda barred from honestly contributing to the project.

I could understand and accept any decision if they at least told me why they'd not want me or have not replied to it.

Another issue is that for some absurd reason one can only add a single #obfs4 @torproject #bridge when ine wants to configure a hidden connection.

This is kinda stupid since #meek, #snowflake and #webtunnel also exist.

kkarhan,
@kkarhan@mstdn.social avatar

@tails @torproject And in the case of #meek that's the only reliable way to tunnel through the #GreatFirewall of the "P.R." #China.

And it's not as if one can query more than 2 bridges at the time from #BridgeDB or granularly filter like "I need an #obfs4 #bridge that uses port 443" or something...
https://bridges.torproject.org

I know ~ why ~ the #Tor Project does it: Otherwise some Governments would query the entire BridgeDB...
