Here is how this changes the HSv3 client-side and service-side: For service side we already required live consensus to upload descriptors (see9e900d1db7) so we should never get there without a live consensus. For the client-side we now require a live consensus to attempt to connect to HS. While this changes the client behavior in principle, it doesn't really change it, because we always required live consensus to set HSDir indices, so before this patch a client with no live consensus would try to compute responsible HSDirs without any HSDir indices and bug out. This makes the client behavior more consistent, by requiring a live consensus (and hence a semi-synced clock) for the client to connect to an HS entirely. The alternative would have been to allow setting HSDir indices with a non-live consensus, but this would cause the various problems outlined by commitb89d2fa1db.

between your Internet address and the services you use. We believe Tor
is reasonably secure, but please ensure you read the instructions and
configure it properly.
