How is Tor blocked on Wikipedia

Extension:TorBlock

There is a MediaWiki plugin called Extension:TorBlock. Source code is in a Phabricator repository.

What we can tell about how it works:

  • during a period from XXXX to XXXX it read from the Trob Project bulk list service (link?)
  • after XXXX, it pulls from the newerer "Onionoo" service
  • pulls perioditically, typically from a cronjob
