Over the next few days, we will respond to bridge operators who have enrolled in the WebTunnel campaign to send Tor t-shirts and stickers.

If you have set up your bridges but haven't reached out to us, please email frontdesk@torproject.org using the same email address associated with your bridge contact information.

#tor #webtunnel #censorship

blog.torproject.orgIt takes a (Global) Village to Fight Censorship | Tor ProjectIt's been a year since we launched WebTunnel bridges and the Tor community has successfully scaled WebTunnel bridges from 60 to over 300, surpassing the initial goal of 200 new deployments.

Right now the problem with @torproject #BridgeDB is that I can't get #webtunnel bridges on #IPv4 even when I try to specify those by setting ipv6=no at the URL:

bridges.torproject.org/bridges

And no, removing IPv6 from the URL doesn't yield any IPv4 results either.
bridges.torproject.org/bridges

It would be better if #BridgeDB would have a radio button / switch to choose IPv4 & #IPv6 for this reason.

BridgeDB result for webtunnel only offering IPv6 addresses:

#WhatsMissing: A tool to check if #TorBridges are still available/online/reachable that one can use either #standalone (with #TorBrowser and/or #Tor Expert Bundle) or on @tails_live / @tails / #Tails.

  • Cuz I do run into issues and kinda want to sort #Bridges by availability so I don't waste time on a #TorBridge that is down and also thin-out the list of bridges that ain't online anymore.

Whilst I do acknowledge that @torproject do disrecommend having a huge list of Tor Bridges on hand, I do regularly need them for contacts who are behind a #GreatFirewall and can't #SSH-Tunnel out of it.

Espechally being able to filter for #IPv4only and not just #IPv6only is something I miss, alongside the filter for #PluggableTransports type as @guardianproject #Orbot seems to only handle #obfs4 and not webtunnel or #meek at all...

  • I'm pretty certain that merely pinging a bridge at it's port isn't working as a shure-fire way to check for it's availability.

@wmd @miqokin I've yet to find a nation that criminalizes @torproject but not #VPN|s that facilitate the same...

  • Also commercial VPN providers are relatively easy to detect, filter & block unless they support #SSH-Tunneling.

Whereas #Tor has multiple ways to circumvent #InternetCensorship, includibg multiple #proxy & 9bfuscation systems like #obfs4, #meek, #webtunnel and regular #TorBridges on included, public query-able amd private lists...

chaos.social🌈☔🌦️🍄 (@wmd@chaos.social)@kkarhan@infosec.space @miqokin@denden.world sorry a single line, sourcing a single bold claim linking to a wall of (us) legalese isn't a very useful means of communication. VPNs have functions outside of geoblocking. In many countries not logging isn't illegal (logging and not providing logs is a different story). Tor would be illegal otherwise. Torrenting is one reason, laws and enforcement changes a lot from country to country. Requiring international cooperation is another, making things more complicated. (1/2)

@ActuallyAubrey That depends on the juristiction in question, the plan & provider in question as well as used hardware in question.

  • In case of even remotely suspected #Stalkerware I do recommend to get personally-owned, controlled, secured and hidden hardware to enable unsurveiled comms.

Consider telephony & SMS inherently & unfixably insecure.

  • If in doubt get a new Android with an anonymous prepaid SIM that has affordable data options and use @torproject / #TorBrowser and #Orbot with #TorBridges on ports 80 & 443 which use #meek & #webtunnel transports, so any surveiling party will only see non-suspicious HTTPS traffic.

OFC a maliciously configured CPE/Router can log & report all pachets that travel through, but #DNS & #HTTP or any unencrypted comms are susceptible.
