[tor-relays] New Relay by the Chaos Computer Club Vienna (C3W)

2020-01-23 Thread MacLemon
Hi!

I just wanted to convey some happy news:

The Chaos Computer Club Vienna[0] (C3W, Vienna/Austria) just launched their 
second relay. We're still working on tweaking the bandwidth announcements.

Of course feedback to our relay setup is highly welcome and if you have 
questions, I'm happy to answer them.

Feel free to poke around the metrics[1].

Best regards
MacLemon

Is the kind of obfuscation, we see in use today, for the `ContactInfo`-field
useful against spammers at all? My intuition says no, but it might be
wrong. I personally don't believe I've received more unwanted email by
not obfuscating my email address on my relays.

I think the suggestion in our man-page with generating a new email
address for the relay contact information might be a better option for
everybody if this is a concern to the operator.

The RIPE database allows me to list the email addresses associated with
various objects, if I pass some flags to their whois server, so I would
assume we could add a requirement that a relay operator should use
something that structurally resembles an email address at the very
least.

At some point in a distant future, we could even require that the email
addresses are "validated" by having some service sending an email to the
operator of a new relay and have them click on some link to a validation
service if we think that is useful to have.

All the best,
Alex.
