Unblock Tor Network IPs

[nmfreak]

Tor helps keep the internet anonymous. It was working with this site quite well, even providing https_anywhere. But recently I've been getting notice that ECCIE is blocking Tor, and to contact the administrators to unblock. Please unblock?

Not sure what https_anywhere is, but if you meant https everywhere, I seriously doubt it was actually working with Eccie.

That would be nice if they stopped blocking Tor exit nodes but they don't seem to be very responsive or transparent about such things.

an easy solution would be is to request a new identity - to get a new identity, on the top left of the TOR page will be a green onion, click the onion and select "New Identity" - click yes, get re-routed and try getting onto the site

To expand on Wakeup's absolutely accurate response, and ignoring that this site does intentionally want to track user ip addresses so that members that violate site guidelines can be dealt with: I'll quote myself from the other thread on the https/ssl thread in this forum.

But does anyone really think that a lot of effort is going to be put into an internet hunt for misdemeanor stuff?
Of course, if someone is being hunted for more than misdemeanors, then we're back to a good IT tech being involved.

So you are completely ok with your uplink internet providers knowing all of your clear text traffic? I can accept that a good IT specialist can find information if they are looking. But a savvy troll can also find unblocked IPs to connect with.

I neither want to provide reason to be looked into, nor be a troll.

All I want is to encrypt my uplink connection and mask sites I read. Do you have any recommendations?

bad news. very bad news. the Government doesn't want a free nor anonymous Web.

"This ruling approval comes on the heels of media headlines detailing how over 1 million consumers use Tor to access Facebook. For every single illegal use case for anonymity software, there are hundreds, if not thousands legal ones. If this ruling gets approved, many innocent users will be spied upon by the FBI for no reason whatsoever."


let's see Zuckerberg's take on this? i cannot imagine he'll like it. at all.

So you want the site to be unable to use it's security functionality to enable you to hide your tracking info, I don't think many sites that want to be able to moderate what happens on their site are going to do that. even sites with SSL track your movements on their site. they aren't concerned on hiding how you got there just what outsiders can see while your there.

Just go with a VPN

No, I simply don't want my ISP to know where I go.

I messaged a admin about using evercookie and mod security. If those where implemented you can have vpn users and still have site security. But Tor exit nodes should be blocked. Tor just brings bad attention something a site like this does not need at all.

If you are browsing the site at work, use your smart phone and don't use the company wifi. If you must have the site on a larger screen/tablet/laptop then tether the device to the connection from your phone.

Last I heard, your SO can't order your phone service provider to give them a list of the sites you visit and generally it's unavailable.
