Library’s Tor relay now restored (Ars Technica)

Last week we reported that the Kilton Public Library in Lebanon, New Hampshire suspended its Tor node deployment due to criticism by the local police department. Ars Technica now reports that the Tor relay has been restored. "As Ars reported earlier, the goal of the Library Freedom Project is to set up Tor exit relays in as many of these ubiquitous public institutions as possible. As of now, only about 1,000 exit relays exist worldwide. If this plan is successful, it could vastly increase the scope and speed of the famed anonymizing network. For now, Kilton has a middle relay but has plans to convert it to an exit relay. A middle relay passes traffic to another relay before departing the Tor network on the exit relay."
