[liberationtech] Torservers.net: Professional Global Tor infrastructure

[Moritz Bartl]

Hi,

I think the timing is right to inform libtech about the development of
Torservers.net. What started as a German non-profit has now grown into a
network of non-profit organizations in several countries. All member
organizations benefit from tight collaboration and knowledge exchange
about running crucial Tor infrastructure (mostly Tor exits and Tor
bridges), whereas the diversity of operators helps the stability and
anonymity of the whole network. The current members are listed at
https://www.torservers.net/partners.html .

My goal is to acquire funding from various sources, and oversee the
distribution and intelligent use of it.  If you hear about potential
grants we can apply to, for example to ramp up additional hundreds of
bridges and Tor relay bandwidth, I am more than happy to hear about it.

You are also invited as an individual to donate to the Torservers.net
"umbrella", or to one of our member organizations directly:

https://www.torservers.net/donate.html

Within Europe, your donations to Torservers.net are tax deductible. In
the USA, you can donate to our partner NoiseTor, a registered 501c3, for
these purposes.

If your organization wants to join Torservers as a partner, or become an
official sponsor of one of our relays, contact me.
