Subject: [tor-talk] Algorithm that chooses exit nodes
To: tor-talk at lists.torproject.org


Dear fellows,

I´d like to know, what algorithm does TOR use to chose an exit node?
What I find strange is, I always get an exit node from the same region on
this planet.
I never had an exit node, say from Russia or Hong Kong or Japan, but always
from the same region.

This algorithm does not seem to chose it really randomly.
Thus I´m curious how TOR choses exit nodes!



Thank you
