Hm? ContactInfo is just a string. You can set it however you like. Here's the stanza in the torrc file: ## Administrative contact information for this relay or bridge. This line ## can be used to contact you if your relay or bridge is misconfigured or ## something else goes wrong. Note that we archive and publish all ## descriptors containing these lines and that Google indexes them, so ## spammers might also collect them. You may want to obscure the fact that ## it's an email address and/or generate a new address for this purpose. #ContactInfo Random Person <nobody AT example dot com> ## You might also include your PGP or GPG fingerprint if you have one: #ContactInfo 0xFFFFFFFF Random Person <nobody AT example dot com> > There is currenctly no safe way to be contacted by the Tor gang and > this is a problem with your idea. Another piece of the problem is that we don't enforce any particular info in the ContactInfo line (or even that you set one at all). I guess we could send a challenge to the email address, and demand a reply, and otherwise set a cap on the capacity that the network will assign you. Seems like that would be another barrier to our volunteer relay operators, but maybe for exit relays it's worth it. --Roger -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
