Re: [tor-relays] Sitevalley is no longer Tor-friendly



I'm currently trying to build a network on Brazil. The main problem is
to get a fast network link. Telecoms brought out shitty infrastructure
and high "combo deal prices". But I hope that bringing up more nodes
should attenuate the issue. At least for web browsing.

Hmm. Pretty crummy AUP. And /very/ crummy treatment of a customer.

I wonder if we are going to see more of this sort of thing now. I
think the tor network needs greater geographic diversity.
