" Bridge relays (or "bridges" for short) are Tor relays that aren't listed in the main Tor directory. Since there is no complete public list of them, even if your ISP is filtering connections to all the known Tor relays, they probably won't be able to block all the bridges. If you suspect your access to the Tor network is being blocked, you may want to use the bridge feature of Tor.

If you use Vidalia the screenshots on the mentioned page will help you determine if you use bridges, but in general: If you didn't explicitly choose to use a bridge you connect to Tor directly. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iF4EAREKAAYFAk3w+RwACgkQyM26BSNOM7ZZowEAuEUFrAHfnAUlE8o6paXWUujy GISGT955EhI47c2EX3MA/RfuY9rdKDbIty0Yg7SjI06BQn1CVYv0lmKS1VmsiiU0 =oagY -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
