i started self-hosting an onion site with Tor, and my rock solid internet has started to cut out for no reason
everything on the router shows "connected", and the ping times out at my ISP
they said no outages have happened
I imagine this is an attack that works. What if you simply turn off connections you suspect until some darknet market is suddenly inaccessible?
Is there even a way to add redundancy to an onion site?
TOR isn't safe from glowies. If glowies want to deanonymize you on TOR they'll just DDOS the other nodes to force you through glowing nodes.
>started self-hosting an onion site
don't
>What if you simply turn off connections you suspect until some darknet market is suddenly inaccessible?
you'd have to shut down the tor instance for the "attack" to stop
>Is there even a way to add redundancy to an onion site?
yes, it works just like a normal website
post link faggot
if your site is good ill consider helping u
you being glowniggers, anonymous
unironically this. What does it even take to qualify as a node? just an IP? the FBI probably have millions on reserve and they could easily run tens of thousands of virtual nodes on a few beefy servers.

paedos
does my autism diagram make sense
you would only need to do it for "users" who are continuously accessing tor btw

They could also slow down your connection at the ISP right? If the DDoS doesn't work.
>you'd have to shut down the tor instance for the "attack" to stop
what?
What if you host a node yourself? Then DDoSing nodes would make you incapable of connecting to anything, including glownodes.
Traffic shape all nodes other than the glow nodes at the ISP

DDoSing 6851 relays?

Idk if it actually means anything but it's illegal for the govt to limit your ability to connect to the internet at least at the device-to-WiFi level so in theory if they did this it wouldn't be admissible.
70% are owned by the CIA anyway
...
Tor was developed by the Dept. of the Navy btw.
Post hands in a dark room
Would it be ok for them to cut the cable or is that also some kind of violation of the freedom?
That's FUD, the vast majority of Tor relay operators are personally known to the Tor Project

>David Goldschlag, Mike Reed, and Paul Syverson at the U.S. Naval Research Lab (NRL) asked themselves if there was a way to create internet connections that don't reveal who is talking to whom, even to someone monitoring the network. Their answer was to create and deploy the first research designs and prototypes of onion routing.

An adversary can fingerprint you based on your settings
