PrivacyPal

PrivacyPal is more than just a high-performance, non-exit Tor relay. It is a commitment to strengthening the Tor network and protecting online privacy in an increasingly surveilled world. This project is my open ledger, detailing every decision, challenge, and triumph encountered in keeping this relay alive and thriving. From the initial setup and ongoing security audits to the nuances of managing exit policies and traffic flow, nothing is hidden. I believe that true privacy infrastructure relies on trust and shared knowledge, which is why I am documenting the entire process to inspire and guide fellow privacy advocates in building a more private internet.
