Re: TOR Blocked at Universities

[Harry Hoffman <hhoffman@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Peter,

When you say blocked are you saying that faculty, staff, and students
are not allowed to run exit nodes in the TOR network? Or rather that the
above are not allowed to use TOR clients to connect into the TOR
network?

Cheers,
Harry

Whenever trying to run TOR, TOR cannot get past the 10% mark.  Would it have been wiser for Auburn University to block incoming connections from TOR nodes, but allow TOR outgoing connections?  Does this break TOR if incoming connections are blocked yet outgoing are not?
