This list has always been free to read, and it stays that way. But running a 24/7 tor probe fleet is not free, so the list now has a business model: paid placements. Full transparency about how they work follows - because a status list that hides its incentives has no business lecturing anyone about trust.
Every uptime percentage on this site now comes from a rolling 7-day window instead of an all-time counter. Here is what changed, why it matters, and how to read any uptime stat.
the big list just got structure: dedicated category pages with descriptions, per-category status summaries and URLs you can actually share.
a single failed probe no longer turns a badge red: the checker now retries on fresh circuits before believing an outage.
