+ Sure! We recommend two non-profit charities that are happy to turn |
|
| 1382 |
+ your donations into better speed and anonymity for the Tor network: |

|
| 1385 |
+ <li><a href="https://www.torservers.net/">torservers.net</a> |
|
| 1386 |
+ is a German charitable non-profit that runs a wide variety of |
|
| 1387 |
+ exit relays. Note that they also like donations of bandwidth from |
|
| 1388 |
+ ISPs.</li> |

|
| 1391 |
+ is a US-based 501(c)(3) non-profit that collects donations and turns |
|
| 1392 |
+ them into more exit relay capacity.</li> |
|
| 1393 |
+ </ul> |
|
| 1394 |
+ |
|
| 1395 |
+ <p> |
|
| 1396 |
+ These organizations are not the same as <a href="<page |
|
| 1397 |
+ donate/donate>">The Tor Project, Inc</a>, but we consider that a |
|
| 1398 |
+ feature. They're both run by nice people. |

|
| 1402 |
+ Note that there can be a tradeoff here between anonymity and |
|
| 1403 |
+ performance. The Tor network's anonymity comes in part from diversity, |
|
| 1404 |
+ so if you are in a position to run your own relay, you will be |
|
| 1405 |
+ improving Tor's anonymity more. At the same time though, economies |
|
| 1406 |
+ of scale for bandwidth mean that combining many small donations into |
|
| 1407 |
+ several larger relays is much more efficient at improving network |
|
| 1408 |
+ performance. Improving anonymity and improving performance are both |
|
| 1409 |
+ worthwhile goals, so however you can help is great! |
