[tor-relays] Consensus weights in light of recent insecurities
I have two relays running, both with patched up SSL, latest alpha build and with new keys. Both are stable and guards, yet since the last restart several days ago one transferred: 40GB - https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/D0B1FAD2AE3C5CA526D8329D20FA55BF2BFDAF1E and the other 2GB - https://atlas.torproject.org/#details/3597D85E08CC511923A4E74F7F54E209E01E04FD ; consensus stuck at 20 Given the situation with the recent insecurities, the latter relay sure seems under utilized. I realize that my relays are considered "small" by some standards, but somehow I was made to believe that in Tor is all about mixing things up. A paid-for bandwidth is a terrible thing to waste. :-) ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

Re: [tor-relays] NHS UK blocking Tor?
Right - so this seems to confirm that they are indeed blocking Tor - and not just exits - I'm running a middle relay. I've contacted them via a web form asking why they block all Tor relay IPs. Tips on what I should tell then if/when they get back to me tomorrow? Was currently planning on at least explaining the difference between middle and exit relays.

Thanks, Chris I am running both my relay, OnionTorte, and a vanilla machine from a home connection. Both get denied access, and the Ref# changes w/ each visit.

[tor-relays] NHS UK blocking Tor?
Can someone else running a relay from their home connection confirm that they get an 'Access denied' error from http://www.nhs.uk? I've checked with someone using the same ISP in the flat above me and they seem able to access the site just fine, as can I via mobile internet so I'm down to suspecting that they are blocking all Tor relay IPs. This is the exact error I get: Access DeniedYou don't have permission to access "http://www.nhs.uk/"; on this server. Reference #18.1f7f1002.1397514736.1fe2170c The reference seems to change each time I visit. If this does turn out to be them blocking Tor - advice on how to approach contacting them to resolve this would be appreciated.
