Tor Usenet Server

[Faux Dameron]

Hi all, I am in the planning/learning stages of setting up a new text-
only Usenet server. I'm considering setting up a Tor onion service
interface for free access (similar to eternal-september) and I would like
to know if anyone would be interested.

Check rocksolid.* hierarchy, they run some Tor-accessible Usenet servers,
including web-interfaces for them.

Feel free to post here or there if you need any help. I should note that
once you have server up and running it’s quite trivial to make it
accessible from Tor.

I routinely see people indicating they want (more) ToR / I2P accessible
Usenet servers.

RE-ask your question in the alt.privacy.anon-server newsgroup for more
interested parties.

I've built dozens of onion services before and I'm well versed on Tor but
learning INN is something altogether different and that's what takes time.

The news.admin.peering newsgroup might be a viable resource.

Feel free to email me directly if you have INN questions. I'm happy to
help and peer.

This is interesting. How did it go? Is it easy to host a text-only node
through Tor?
