Re: [tor-relays] Tor relay in Russia/China
It sounds like a challenge to get a relay up in China... Perhaps this talk might inpsire a way of helping Tor into China. http://www.ted.com/talks/michael_anti_behind_the_great_firewall_of_china.html Robert GET FREE SMILEYS FOR YOUR IM & EMAIL - Learn more at http://www.inbox.com/smileys Works with AIM®, MSN® Messenger, Yahoo!® Messenger, ICQ®, Google Talk™ and most webmails ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

And for a whole lot more than just Tor nodes. But keep in mind that Chinese people like to do things in a tricky way. They might say not censored network but they didn't say they're not monitoring it. The gov has said that they will be strict on "ideology" in any situation. I did hear about someone in "a famous Finnish mobile phone company which will belong to a US operating system making company" said they can access facebook directly but I haven't got a chance to see whether they are using an enterprise level VPN or uncensored network. > > -- > --- > PGP Fingerprint : > 7770 D186 A06E A329 2217 > 3161 63EB F269 37B8 8644 > > http://pastebin.com/8W8vyNjb > --- > "...

For protest I agree USA should be avoided but I have had very little trouble and great speed on seven exit relays there. > And to the guys saying "avoid the ussa like the plague" this wanna-be > expat agrees 100%.
