unusually large contingent of Iranian routers
dr|z3d
the majority of which are PR

dr|z3d: sounds great that iranians are using i2p to bypass censorship
dr|z3d
that may well be the case, xeiaso, but the preponderance of PR cap routers is a little odd. if they're all i2pd, then they won't get the benefit of auto-hidden mode, so maybe someone's providing a pre-configured setup.

Big fans, you see.

I've noticed a consistent decrease in the Active Peer count btw

I wonder if these attacks are actually working and the network is getting smaller
obscuratus
What's the latest consensus on how these fake Router Info attacks are being introduced to the network?
obscuratus
Directly? Through an Outbound Endpoint? Through client tunnels? Other? Various?
xeiaso
obscuratus: an outbound endpoint is just the last router in a tunnel
obscuratus
Yes, orignal was speculating that when you router is a participating tunnel OBEP, you may be forwarding RI DSM for the anonymous originator of that tunnel.
orignal
for me it doesn't matter
obscuratus
orignal: What doesn't matter?
orignal
how fake routers being deplyed directly or through OB or both
xeiaso

I was just checking to see if I was still conncted. #ls2 is going really slow.

So, is it three periods in a row that sets off a certain bot ...
obscuratus
I was trying to see why major intermittently chimes in. :)
not_bob
I have no idea on that one.
RN
is it three periods, or an elipsis …
