I've disabled this behaviour for now, so that we
can have a more orderly
phase-in period with community discussion. Admin blocks of Tor exit nodes
will continue to work. The new protections which have been introduced will
also work, and so Tor anonymous users on the English Wikipedia will
typically see two block messages.
Thanks for holding off on this :-)
I've asked the other checkusers concerned about this to post useful
information to wikitech-l about what we actually see in practice on
en:wp (buckets of toxic waste through Tor, the fabulously illustrative
case of Runcorn concerning softblocks, etc), so as to supply the devs
with good info.
