RE: Tor limitation

["Bob" <monfster@xxxxxxxxx>]

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
