What is it?

This shell-script fetches lists of tor-exit-node IP-addresses, parses and sanitizes them and applies it as an iptables IPv4/IPv6-ruleset, so they are blocked.

Setup

use hourly cronjob as user 'root' for regular updates:

6 * * * * /usr/local/bin/tornodes_block.sh update

Description

IP-lists are fetched from

'https://www.dan.me.uk/torlist/?exit' and
'https://check.torproject.org/cgi-bin/TorBulkExitList.py?ip=1.1.1.1'.

iptables replacement of new rules works nearly atomic.
