#20575: Delete HTTPProxy from Tor config manual, and Tor itself -----------------------------------+------------------------------------ Reporter: cypherpunks | Owner: dgoulet Type: task | Status: needs_information Priority: High | Milestone: Tor: 0.3.1.x-final Component: Core Tor/Tor | Version: Severity: Normal | Resolution: Keywords: triage-out-030-201612 | Actual Points: Parent ID: | Points: .2 Reviewer: | Sponsor: -----------------------------------+------------------------------------
Comment (by arma): I think we should deprecate both httpproxy and httpproxyauthenticator, with intent to remove them when nobody complains. They are options from back in the day when client directory interactions happened over http, so we needed to survive having a local proxy in between us and the web. I think the chances that some relay operator ran across them and decided to send their relay descriptor uploads via an http proxy are basically zero. (Or, if somebody did, they need to stop.) -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/20575#comment:11> 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
