Comment:
I'm personally very reluctant to touch the `Tor2web` code because I
seriously don't want to encourage anyone running this not now not after,
never.
And this is also basically touching code that is *never* tested on our
side nor even packaged by distros. So even shipping Tor2web code in tor
today is imo border line reckless.
Regardless of my hate of Tor2web ;), I might prefer much more that HSDir
defends against that with #24964 so we can avoid a DoS attack.
At least right now, clients fetching descriptor directly from HSDir are
putting less load on the network.
Thoughts?
