@torproject Q: I wish there was a similar tool test #Bridges, as https://bridges.torproject.org/scan/ is not that good and I don't want to hammer it with dozens of addresses, cuz at best that's quite antisocial if not possibly trigger responses assuming this is an intelligence gathering operation.
- Ideally sone standalone binary that one can just give a list of #TorBridge|s in a text file (similar to the way one can just past them in at #TorBrowser) would help.
I.e.
bridgetest -v4 obfs4 203.0.113.0:80 …
bridgetest -v6 webtunnel [2001:DB8::1]:443 …
bridgetest -list ./tor.bridges.list.private.tsv
- But maybe #onionprobe already does that. In that case please tell me to "#RTFM!"…
Similarly there needs to be a more granular way to request #TorBridges from #BridgeDB (as it's basically impossible to get #IPv4 #Webtunnel addresses nor is there an option to filter for #ports like :80 & :443 to deal with restrictive #firewalls (i.e. on public #WiFi)…
- there are flags like
ipv6=yesbut neitheripv4=yesnoripv6=noyielded me other resultd than #IPv6webtunnelbridges…
And before anyone asks: Yes, I do have a "legitimate purpose" as some of my contacts do need Bridges to get beyond a mandatory firewall and/or do use #TorBrowser (through an #SSH tunnel) to circumvent Tor & #VPN blocks and maintain privacy (as many companies do block sometimes entire #Hosters' ASNs due to rampant #scrapers…
