Hi,
I have a Tor middle relay on Verizon FiOS.
If I try to access Verizon.com on the FiOS connection running a Tor middle relay, I get this error:
Access denied, in accordance with Verizon Information Security Policy
Please contact us if there is a legitimate business need to access this content.
They gave an email address to the EdgeCast NOC that I contacted, but the EdgeCast support said I should contact FiOS and not EdgeCast, even though I think the blocking is on EdgeCast's side (if it was on FiOS then I would get a "Hmm. We’re having trouble finding that site" error from Firefox).
Other Verizon sites such as Verizon Wireless and Verizon Media/Oath properties like AOL/Yahoo/Tumblr/HuffPost/etc. are not blocked on FiOS running Tor (heck, I can even sign up for Tumblr on exit relays), even though these other Verizon sites also use EdgeCast.
For those who have middle relays on their home broadband connection (not bridge or exit), both on Verizon FiOS and other ISPs regardless of country or technology, please test for if Verizon.com is blocked.
Thank You,
Neel Chauhan
