Has the EFF sent anyone to China to check this out and hopefully
get some more details? It would be especially interesting to find out
what the situation is for other P2P and anonymity networks w/in china.
If they are alive, how? If they got canned, what were their mistakes
that lead to it?

most of the censoring, in china at least, is done automatically with

having to deal with right now. for most people that really wouldn't
impact their lives that much, except that there would be some pages
that you counldn't view, and some messages that you couldn't send.
BUT.
there is always a but,
We, for the most part, are from countires that don't have restrictions
on speach, so we would set off all of the flags that the censoring
software was looking for, and the ISP would be ordered to cut the
connection pretty quickly. Personally I don't think that an exit or
entry server would last more than 5 minutes on china's web.

Well, the faq says "If you want to avoid most if not all abuse potential,
set it to "reject *:*". This is called being a "middleman" node." - but can
that also be an Entry node?
However, I think someone running any type of tor SERVER node behind the
Great Firewall would have a lot more to worry about than just pissing off
their isp...

OK. I was going to say, "Tor should be able to get through it!". The point
is, if you have a bunch of tor nodes, especially geographically disparate
ones, the load should be spread out, no?
Are they default-allow or default-deny over there?

Hello Matt,
Somehow, I don't think China will kindly look upon those running
Tor
servers inside their country. Infact, I am concerned about
the
integrity of Tor servers which have data passing through
Chinese
servers, as it seems hard to believe their government would allow
them
to exist without their approval.
Has anyone else had such concerns, or any answers to such concerns?
Regards,
ST

I'm in Beijing and I'm happy that Tor is there when
I need it. In

en.wikipedia.org is now blocked by my ISP, so Tor is
almost
essential. But
yes, it's pretty slow, though I'm patient. Only
lately,
I'm consistently
getting DNS lookup failures, and that's what's
mostly
eroding my experience
of using Tor all the time. (I know I should
change the config of my client
to give more logging info so I can
track down this bad exit node, but I
haven't made the effort yet.)
