Setting up a private bridge only helps if you have friends or family living living under an oppressive regime. Anyone who run an obfsproxy bridge will be helping the to alleviate the shortage of bridges.[1] The quickest and easiest way is to setup your free Amazon EC2 account with the Instructions at the Tor Cloud Project page[2]. It took me just a couple of minutes to install my free EC2 account. Another option is to donate money to pay for the bandwidth that Tor relay and exit nodes require.[3] NOTE: A bridge is not the same as an exit node. Only exit nodes could possibly attract attention from authorities. If you are just running a bridge, you are only helping people circumvent government firewalls to join the Tor network. The default EC2 Tor Cloud images only run as a bridge. [1] http://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/04/tor-ca...
