To take this idea a step further, it might be possible to build a distributed observatory. Each node of the observatory would be a simple daemon that does random HTTP requests and records any interesting responses. The responses could be shared out to a central repository where another tool, or tools, could be used to mine it and look for problems. Since the responses are saved, they could be injected back into a VM running a Tor Browser Bundle to investigate further. Other possibilities/enhancements: - An observatory node could be configured to work with a DNS resolver to send requests to servers that may have a higher likelihood of returning interesting results, where that's possible. - Exit nodes could be configured to run an observatory node directly, so traffic wouldn't consume Tor network bandwidth. -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsusbscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
