[tor-talk] 3rd Party Interact (re: BSD ISP VoIP PBX RadPony ...)

[grarpamp <grarpamp@xxxxxxxxx>]

Regardless of whether some components may or may not be
fee, or subscription, or strings / rules attached, now or in the future...
(that status or intentions should be made clear by any poster
in this space so that things don't end up undeclared / unexpected
thus trending against them later on)...

These entities and persons are engaging in interoperation,
testing, concept validation, and providing services to Tor
community in a fairly open mutual feedback model. In this
example so far, Tor users get chances to plug and play
and hack on...

a) Diverse FreeBSD hosting of Tor nodes
b) IP Telephony apps, comms, and free speech over Tor

It's hard to deny those as being valuable and fun.

Nor did you see Cloudflare's CEO or hardly any other ISP
coming straight from the start to Tor to talk / play / help.
(Though to be fair this one has [ex] govt ties too
which some may or not prefer.)

It's not much different than interacting Zwiebel, Emerald,
Torstatus, funders, etc.

In the end, you get to choose what services to use,
what interop to hack on, what milters to deploy, what
to put in Bad/Good ISP List wiki, etc.

So, ease up a bit on who can and can't interact with Tor.
