ORBot for Android has a related bug?

Re: [tor-relays] recently saw 4 tor relays in row on tails. bug in tor?
I've seen alot of unusual activity too!?! Relays with bad certificates are also common nowadays! It looks like that many relays are under attack? Here in Skandinavia there are a lot of problems connecting, even ORBOT or Android devices are compromized?

Bug in tor? Your Tor picks three hops that it controls, and if it needs to build a circuit that involves a relay that it didn't pick, it uses that other relay as a fourth hop. So you didn't tell us what you were doing, but this is normal behavior for example when you're loading an onion service, because the rendezvous process involves building circuits to relays that the onion service picked. Your first three relays are for protecting you, and the later relays in the path are there for other goals. --Roger ___ tor-relays mailing list tor-relays@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-relays

I recently saw a series of 4 relays connected to each other: itomori, MediumSlesmn, hotbrownie, pellidos itomori, docto, Geheimschreiber, 420isGay Dont most relays in the network of length 3?
