Comment (by arma): Replying to [comment:16 micah]: > redirect any user that comes from an IP in the above list to the onion address I've been recommending to websites that they *not* do this. First, it breaks your website the people in the case of false positives (e.g. where an apartment building has one IP address and one exit relay). But more importantly, it should be up to the users what sort of security properties they get while connecting to your website, and you're taking away their choice. Privacy is about control and choice -- putting up a little dynamic section of the page that says "Hey, did you know we have an onion address?" is great, but sending them somewhere else based on their IP address seems like a slippery slope. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/21952#comment:17> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online _______________________________________________ tor-bugs mailing list tor-bugs@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-bugs
