#BlockTor

@torproject same with #obfs4 bridges: there is no option to say like ports=80,443 or similar, which makes it cumbersome to get said bridges.

And trying to get places to #DontBlockTor that criminalize the use of #Tor is foolish at best.

Contabo ToS Section 9.4:

"
(4) The Provider is entitled to immediately block any webspace packages and servers that are being used to operate the “TOR” service, insofar as the Provider has become aware that the server or package is being used unlawfully. "

@ginaintheburg Are you shure you don't conflate @torproject / #TorBrowser with @tails_live / @tails / #Tails, which is a #Linux #distro with #Tor & Tor #Browser setup and ready to use.

Confusingly Tails has been absorbed by the #TorProject but that's a different story...

As for #Accessibility, maybe the combination of a #HeadMountedDisplay & wireless Keyboard + Mouse combo offers you the desired flexibility...

Someone naively asked me "Why don't you make a #TorBridges #list in your repo?

github.com/greyhat-academy/lis

Well, this is because that would subvert @torproject and it's voluneer's efforts to maintain #accessibility for those that need #TorBridges to even get #Internet access.

basically #doxxing these #Bridges and resulting in users having a harder time to access #Tor by making it harder to circumvent #InternetCensorship.

Because guess who would immediately crawl it?
The Regimes that #BlockTor.
