Blocking of public relays in Belarus, 2016-12-01

Direct users decreased from 5,500 to 3,000 over a few days starting on November 30 or December 1. Bridge users simultaneously increased, from 250 to 2,000.

OONI blog post: urandom.pcap: Belarus (finally) bans Tor:

  1. Tor directory authorities are not blocked
  2. Public onion routers have their ORPort blocked by TCP RST injection
  3. The onion routers’ DirPort is not blocked
  4. Plain-old non-obfuscated Tor Bridges from BridgeDB circumvent the interference
  5. Beltelecom (or its upstream) has strange configuration of the networking gear injecting reset packets
