This feature - could help people from a country were many sites are blocked to - exclude this country for browsing, giving them a more stable - navigation. It could also add the possibility for the user to - exclude a currently used exit node. - -Implementation - - ExcludeExitNodes is similar to ExcludeNodes except it's only - the exit node which is excluded for circuit build. - - Tor doesn't warn if node from this list is not an exit node. - -Security implications: - - Open also possibilities for a future user bad exit reporting - -Risks: - - Use of this option can make users partitionable under certain attack - assumptions. However, ExitNodes already creates this possibility, - so there isn't much increased risk in ExcludeExitNodes. - - We should still encourage people who exclude an exit node because - of bad behavior to report it instead of just adding it to their - ExcludeExit list. It would be unfortunate if we didn't find out - about broken exits because of this option. This issue can probably - be addressed sufficiently with documentation. - |
