[tor-talk] isp monitoring tor

[garyr22 at Safe-mail.net]

Sure, I understand what you mean. I'm assuming a situation that doesn't involve legal issues. This would be illegal surveillance, using average resources with your ISP supporting it for some reason. I think Tor would be able to handle this type surveillance if used correctly.

I would like to know what their procedure would be outside of monitoring ExitNodes. How much effort it would be to examine the packets and get any useful information.


Thanks
