[tor-project] Crowdsourcing some guidelines for what it means to make a web site "Tor-friendly"

[Allen Gunn]

Hello friends,

I hope 2018 is off to a good start wherever this finds you.

So for those who aren't aware, my NGO, Aspiration, advises other NGOs
and activists on technology as part of our core mission.

And a common piece of advice we proffer is "make sure your web site
works well with Tor Browser", i.e., doesn't use Flash or overly depend
on Javascript.

The more I have given that advice, the more I have wondered if it was
documented anywhere what it actually takes to be a "Tor-friendly" site.

Big thanks to GeKo, who first confirmed for me that no such
documentation seems to exist. And then for helping me to bootstrap this
page:

https://pad.riseup.net/p/torfriendlysite

I'm writing to ask folks on this list to both add any thoughts you have
on the matter, and to correct or comment on anything that's already
there and doesn't seem quite right.

Any contributions, both to the pad or emailed to me directly, are most
appreciated.

This is especially true if you know of relevant documentation anywhere
else that I should be looking at.

Once folks have weighed in, I will figure out where to post this on the
Tor wiki and elsewhere in order to make it more broadly and reliably
available.

And if for any reason you think this is an ill-informed endeavor, I
welcome that feedback as well :^)

thanks & peace,
gunner
