Tracking One Year of Malicious Tor Exit Relay Activities (Part II)

>25% of the Tor network’s exit capacity has been attacking Tor users

In August 2020 I reported about “How Malicious Tor Relays are Exploiting Users in 2020 (Part I)”. Back then I made the hypothesis that the entity behind these malicious tor relays is not going to stop its activities anytime soon. Unfortunately this turned out to be true. In this follow-up post, I will give you an update, share what additional information we learned about the attacker since August 2020 and to what extend they were and still are active on the tor network.

Over the past several years, our Network Health team has built tools to diagnose and reject bad relays. As a result, we have rejected many malicious nodes, and we have started documenting them in monthly reports:
