Yes, it's really a problem to find a tech-savvy person to run a private bridge outside the censored regions. Recently, I wanted to test obfsproxy and that adds to the problem! I had to find a person having enough time and knowledge to configure an obfsproxy server out there!Hi all, i've been thinking about the bridge issues. Specifically about the fact that the entrance barrier to install a bridge it's quite high. You need: - someone with technical skills to install a bridge - an internet exposed server where you can install your own software that run in background Those kind of requirements provide a very high entrance barrier for anyone that would like to "support freedom of speech".
Any idea to make the whole process of "making a machine a Tor bridge" more automated is great! Right now, Vidalia interface is really straightforward in setting up a Tor bridge, but to make it operational, the port forwarding part which should be done manually (in most cases) is a hassle for a normal user.
