With the current structure of mirrors, we already rely on 3rd parties with whatever policy they have. I don't think Andrew is actually suggesting to move the main site or main mirrors over there. Personally, I would do everything to avoid these services, especially since they regularly block Tor users, centralize the Internet, often provide bad SSL gateways (with changing certs etc), and I hate to have to allow active content coming from some generic CDN. I am clearly against using commercial CDNs for anything, but if someone wants to run a mirror there, and even if that someone happens to be Andrew, I can't really argue against it. It might actually allow some users to reach a mirror for which other mirrors are blocked. -- Moritz Bartl https://www.torservers.net/ _______________________________________________ tor-mirrors mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-mirrors
