xmrk ₿ ⚡️ on Nostr: Comcast blocks all traffic to tor relays. Not just tor-related traffic, but ALL ...
Comcast blocks all traffic to tor relays. Not just tor-related traffic, but ALL traffic. Have a lightning node and want to pay back your usage of tor by running a tor relay? Forget it, Comcast customers will not be able to connect to your lightning node. This is how I learnt about such blocking. But not just lightning: any self-hosted website is effectively prohibited from running tor relay.
Just use another IPv4 address, right? They are so abundant after all /s. And seems Comcast hasn't yet heard of IPv6.
