So you need more space. Overlays can use either 4/6 on clearnet and emulate either 4/6//N-bits for internal use, and can also setup separate instances integrating into each. IPv6 has some space options, and lots of unallocated slack space. But also search "AF_OVERLAY" for a grander more universal overlay interop scheme than even IPv6 can ever provide. > What worries me is that the Tor community will see this Though exit is and should be a priority in tor at the moment given the gamut of todays overlays, tor does not, should not, and won't have exclusive claim to that functionality in both other currently developing and future overlay networks. > as DDoS, and implement blocks. tor-0.3.2.9 was the last version without some statistical blocking changelog 0.3.2.10: "denial-of-service mitigation" > I wonder whether they've done that with OnionCat. No. Tor can't pick out apps like that, only patterns, those can be really hard for an overlay (like tor) to discern, and impeding of many false positive users. Fork tor if tor censors people (they've already tried to censor relay operators and posters for speaking freely). Say to a non-corporate more globally volunteer opensource tor. Or simply support the development of and migrate to better more resistant overlay networks going forward. Diversity in designs, and with more deployed overlay networks in live competition, are important. Anyway, happy hacking :)

Don't discount what the average Jane's around the world think and want. You can find lots of their tubes if you look around, linked herein two random, not even representative, examples. And a few, a *very* few not necessarily shown herein, are actually seeking truth, approaching and doing things responsibly. They are the ones bringing the future. Find and support and hear them out, the few real ones, among the colossal lot of retards, shills, scams, frauds, statists, fools, fooled, metoos, governments, banks, corporations, and the like. It's either fully distributed decentralized worldwide p2p transaction mineable privacy coins, in/out via IRL p2p and DEX and truly openly inspectable exchanges... or Fiat... pick one, or both in some fraction. They are mutually exclusive, there is no middle ground but fakery and witches. That has always been, and always will be, the story of cryptocurrency... DYOR... make the story a good one. It's not easy, but it's possible.

Re: [liberationtech] Democrats rally around pledge not to use hacked documents (Wash Post)

Those disavowing it are simply afraid of the truth it contains. Disavowers forging joint compacts are attempting to universally discredit and wage war against the truth. Jointly fudding it is their only defense tactic left. Deny deny deny, and never open up for inspection... it's the oldest game in town. Pledges are also a total lie, no politician would refuse to use fruits in such razor thin and engineered "elections", it would be campaign suicide not to, so they'll just use them secretly. Information seeks to be free, to be its own open market, "National Security" is just another Top Secret FUD attack against the natural state and tide of information, an attempt to put freedom back in the bottle, and keep power out in force. Don't let that happen. 2020 US elections will see many documents "liberated". "Pledge" to curate and keep them freely accessible to the world. Because as you can see in the last link above, the FUD is already having desired effect on media, causing them to second guess themselves, to focus on "'criminal' sources" instead of on the information, etc The fourth estate is hardly as strong, independant, or innocent as people think... in most places of note it's already done in, and getting consistantly worse across the board [1]. But you still have the internet... at least for a little while longer... so really it's up to you now.

oniontinc: tinc via Tor v3 onions with MPTCP
by Ann Brown 29 Apr '19

29 Apr '19

Basically, oniontinc routes tinc via Tor, and uses MPTCP for multipathing and link aggregation. tinc hosts listen for connections to Tor v3 onion services, and they connect to peers using Tor SocksPorts. MPTCP aggregates full-mesh connections between hosts, with a preference for those that have greater bandwidth and lower latency. For Internet hosts with well-peered gigabit uplinks, this permits throughput among peers at 30-50 Mbps for multiple streams. There are bash scripts for almost everything involved in creating full-mesh oniontinc networks, using Debian hosts. The scripts draw on a simple configuration table with required information about all hosts in the network. The scripts specify subnets 10.101.1N.0/24 with N=0-5, which are part of the subnet 10.100.0.0/14 that ChaosVPN has allocated for American and other hackerspaces. But you can use any subnet that you like, such as something in 172.20.0.0/14 for dn42. Sent with [ProtonMail](https://protonmail.com) Secure Email.
