> Published on Aug 30, 2013
> 
> Tor developers Roger Dingledine and Jacob Appelbaum talk about how
> exactly governments are doing the blocking, both in terms of what
> signatures they filter in Tor (and how Tor has gotten around the blocking
> in each case), and what technologies they use to deploy the filters --
> including the use of Western technology to operate the surveillance and
> censorship infrastructure in Tunisia (Smartfilter), Syria (Bluecoat), and
> other countries. They cover what they've learned about the mindset of the
> censor operators (who in many cases don't want to block Tor because they
> use it), and how we can measure and track the wide-scale censorship in
> these countries. Last, they explain Tor's development plans to get ahead
> of the address harvesting and handshake DPI arms races.
> (Iran blocked Tor handshakes using Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) in
> January 2011 and September 2011. Bluecoat tested out a Tor handshake
> filter in Syria in June 2011. China has been harvesting and blocking IP
> addresses for both public Tor relays  and private Tor bridges for years.)
