Re: [tor-talk] privacy concerns with new CAPTCHA-method for obfs4 bridges
Or they don't want to ruin their standing with the client who
has the name that is used in the SNI (and who takes the loss
when china should decide to block that b/c it's used by fronters).
Can you elaborate upon that for the noob I am. If i understand you correctly, when using domain fronting, Tor basically spoofs or "hijacks" the ip address of an existing Azure server client ? What exactly is in the SNI : the name of the Azure server or some kind of information of a real client using that service ?
What could China block ? The ip of the real client who was spoofed ?
What would ESNI (encrypted SNI) bring into the mix concerning meek connections ?
