## Priorities for 2023
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- make Tor accessible in China
|
|
|
|
- make Tor accessible in Iran
|
|
|
|
- detect and categorize attempts to censor Tor
|
|
|
|
- improve the design and reliability of our software
|
|
|
|
- release our data and software for use by the broader anti-censorship community
|
|
|
|
- improve the performance of Snowflake so that Tor bootstraps reliably on a mobile phone in China
|
|
|
|
- deploy TapDance and Conjure as high collateral damage PT
|
|
|
|
- commit to a design for a reputation-based bridge distribution system
|
|
|
|
- deploy probes in areas that are likely to censor Tor and collect pack captures and probe results for storage and analysis
|
|
|
|
- provide OONI with suggestions for improving the accuracy of OONI's Tor tests
|
|
|
|
- summarize the details of Tor blocking events with data from our probes and volunteers
|
|
|
|
- sanitize, publish and archive the results of our Tor reachability probes
|
|
|
|
- complete our documentation for each of our tools so that other organizations can run their own anti-censorship infrastructure
|
|
|
|
- Meek deprecation.
|
|
|
|
- Think of priorities for the team so we can write the next proposal to get a sponsor.
|
|
|
|
## Priorities for 2024
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Make Tor more accessible in China.
|
|
|
|
- Make Tor more accessible in Iran.
|
|
|
|
- Make Tor more accessible in Turkmeinstan.
|
|
|
|
- Detect and investigate attempts to censor Tor.
|
|
|
|
- Improve the design and reliability of our software.
|
|
|
|
- Improve the performance of Snowflake so that Tor bootstraps reliably on a mobile phone in China.
|
|
|
|
- Maintain probes in areas that are likely to censor Tor and collect pack captures and probe results for storage and analysis.
|
|
|
|
- Diversify domain fronting options.
|
|
|
|
- Discovering and reporting surprises/regressions in Arti's bridge and PT support.
|
|
|
|
- Time to fork obfs4proxy and maintain it ourselves.
|
|
|
|
- bridge operator usability (obfs4proxy, snowflake, etc): deb packages in the right place, C-Tor patches to include pluggable transport version, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Nice to have:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Q2: Content for the developer portal.
|
|
|
|
- Capturing what we did in 2022 toward our priorities, for our future, and for visibility from other teams? Info is in SOTO 2022, anti-censorship team meeting pads, GitLab issues, and sponsor reports.
|
|
|
|
- Onbasca work to test bridges and bridge performance https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/network-health/onbasca/-/issues/130
|
|
|
|
- The "meta signaling channel app" idea ( https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/anti-censorship/team/-/issues/111)
|
|
|
|
- Are there external groups that are doing things we want to use, re-use, rely on, advertise, etc? Like, Geneva and its censorship assessment tools. Two-six and their apps?
|
|
|
|
- How to structure our future work so that our progress is more evident to our community, in a way that doesn't involve extra bureaucracy/work for us? E.g. other open-source tools use milestones in their issue tracker in a way that organizes tickets by topics, and we don't do that, but we could!
|
|
|
|
- Move to Manifest v3 for Snowflake/ extension.
|
|
|
|
- Deprecate BridgeDB.
|
|
|
|
- Support the Tor community team with anti-censorship issues
