#33299: Remove retired pluggable transports ----------------------------------------+----------------------- Reporter: phw | Owner: phw Type: task | Status: assigned Priority: Medium | Milestone: Component: Circumvention/BridgeDB | Version: Severity: Normal | Keywords: s30-o22a2 Actual Points: | Parent ID: #31279 Points: 0.5 | Reviewer: Sponsor: Sponsor30-can | ----------------------------------------+----------------------- BridgeDB still hands out obfs3, ScrambleSuit, and FTE bridges. Tor Browser no longer supports FTE (see #29319), so we should remove it. I suggest also removing obfs3 and ScrambleSuit because these transports don't offer anything that obfs4 doesn't already provide.
As of today, BridgeDB knows about 1,316 bridges. Among these: * 31 support FTE. 29 of these wouldn't be handed out because they also support obfs4 (see #28655). The remaining two bridges run FTE/obfs3 and ScrambleSuit/obfs3/FTE. * 34 support ScrambleSuit. 32 of these also support obfs4 and only two don't. Instead, they run obfs3/ScrambleSuit and ScrambleSuit/obfs3/FTE. * 106 support obfs3. Only seven of these don't support obfs4. Considering the above, I think it's safe to retire FTE, ScrambleSuit, and obfs3. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/33299> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
