[Question] Is obfs4 used? #131

Closed odiferousmint closed 2 years ago

odiferousmint commented 3 years ago

If it is not, could potentially set the ClientTransportPlugin to obfs4 exec /usr/local/bin/obfs4proxy or just $(pwd)/obfs4proxy or what have you. It would make sense in this case, too, right?

If it makes sense to use it, might write a script that fetches the latest binaries of tor and obfs4proxy.

Opening settings and going to the "Tor" tab seems to give me some anti-censorship settings, try there?

Wouldn't your contacts downstream need to also have obfs4 active on their Ricochet-refresh end as well?

No. Using obfs4 or another bridge only affects you as a client. Since it only affects your connection to the guard node.

obfs4 is not currently used/packaged, but work is scheduled for PTs relatively soon

Now bundled in 3.0.12

PacoBell commented 2 years ago

3.0.12 installers when? Obfs4 is critical for me as my upstream firewall blocks all other Tor traffic.

morganava commented 2 years ago

3.0.12 installer are up on github, but the have a bug that won't be fixed until next week preventing adding of new contacts. I expect signed/uploaded 3.0.13 builds early next week.
