It's strange because it's vague. > I agree with David, something like "NonAnonymousOnionServiceMode 1" > should be enough. It looks pretty clear and simple. > [NB: a service cannot be Hidden and NonAnonymous at the same time :) ] We tried adding NonAnonymous to the name, and it was unwieldy. And it also confuses the semantics: what if we have multiple types of SingleOnionMode? Also, see my reply to David, where I explain that NonAnonymousMode applies to the entire tor instance, including things that are totally unrelated to Single Onion Services, like whether you can open a SOCKSPort or run Tor2Web. We could add a compilation option --enable-single-onion-mode instead of NonAnonymousMode, but I think making Single Onion Service operators compile their own tor is unnecessary.
