OONI users will be able to run the vanilla Tor test to determine whether Tor is blocked. This is about enabling them to do that here in probe-engine.

See measurement-kit/measurement-kit#86 for the original issue.

As of 2020-02-13, we have implemented the tor experiment to connect to a bunch of tor resources such as obfs4 bridges, as implemented, e.g., in ooni/probe-engine#226 and ooni/probe-engine#276. We can implement further improvements to this experiment, and some of them are listed below:

We will (hopfully) be disciplined enough to keep this issue up to date regarding everything that pertains to the experiment/tor implementation in the coming months.

I revisited this issue today as ooni/probe-cli#387 is landing. It turns out, as of today:

We didn't track very precisely the progress we made, but, still, it's important to say that, as of today, we are at 3/5 of the original follow-up points we wanted to cover to improve our tor testing support.

we may want to bundle somehow tor (maybe as external binary?)

it might be useful to look at how bine makes use of a embedded, static Tor binary: https://github.com/cretz/bine/blob/master/process/embedded/process.go
