The Tor network uses volunteer-operated relays to host a distributed, anonymous network. With its goal of reducing the risks of traffic analysis, it ensures that no single point can link a user to their destination.

Internet Protocol Version 6 (IPv6) is a network layer protocol that allows communication and data transfers to take place over the network. IPv6 came into existence in 1998 with the sole purpose of taking over and replace IPv4 protocol one day. The transition from IPv4 to IPv6 that is currently underway creates a big problem for most VPN services. IPv6 VPN Problems. Most VPNs have been slow to accommodate this transition to IPv6 and update their server networks. Of course, upgrading servers to support IPv6 is an expensive and difficult fix. But with the abundance of IPv6 I was just given a /48, and could easily donate an entire /64 block to TOR and they could be selected at random, making it much harder to block and censor them unless the whole block was filtered. It also gives me protection as any clear net originating from that block must be from TOR. IPv6 stands for “Internet Protocol Version 6”, and is currently known as tomorrow’s Internet protocol indented to replace the currently used IP Version 4. Today, everyone who connects to the internet is assigned an IPv4 address, and as more people come online, the demand for additional IP’s goes up. And when we have an IPv4 and an IPv6 address, we want to choose between them at random. Currently, tor checks that extend cells have IPv4 addresses in: [x] some functions in circuitbuild_relay.c (a new file introduced by #33633) [x] channel_get_for_extend() in channel.c [x] check_extend_cell() in onion.c [x] extend_cell_from_extend2_cell_body Servers. Country and ISP diversity are approximated by resolving IP addresses to a country code and an autonomous system. We process the capabilities and properties relays and bri
