Recently I noticed that I can't access several major websites from my > home IP. The network is otherwise clean, it's a relatively new IP since I > moved recently, and the RBLs come up negative. > > The only thing I can think might have triggered it is the tor relay. > Googling around I have seen things like this- firewall rules that block all > tor nodes. > > https://forum.netfort.com/netfort/topics/ids_ruleset_tue_aug_12_11_59_00_ist_2014 > > The sites that seem to be doing this are all hosting with these guys > http://www.internetbrands.com/ > http://www.corvetteforum.com/ > http://www.rennlist.com/ > http://www.bensbargains.net/ > [... many more] > > I then noticed this guy https://www.dan.me.uk/dnsbl - when I hit this page > from my relay-only IP, I get > > "I'm sorry, but I really don't see why anyone would need to use a TOR node > or Anonymous Proxy server to look at my site. > So i'm afraid you can't look. Stop running TOR / using an anonymous proxy > and you can view my site." > > Even though I'm not accessing the site over tor, and even though the node > at my IP is a non-exit and there is no > possibility that my IP would ever access their properties over TOR. > > Anyway, this surprised me. In retrospect I suppose if people have access > to the list of nodes (exit or not) they'll use > it to set up firewall rules whether they understand what they are doing or > not. > > If this is the way things are moving, I suppose I'll have to shut down or > VPN up my home node. > -- > tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] > To unsubscribe or change other settings go to > https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
