I don't think that's necessarily 'your' research. That's more like the propaganda that comes from the tor mafia and the so called 'legal system' and that you are naively repeating. Although it is possible that some people get caught thanks to, say, 'exploits' in php or webservers, it's impossible to know when that happens. Look, syverson himself admits how bad tor is. https://www.freehaven.net/anonbib/cache/ccs2013-usersrouted.pdf "An adversary that provides no more bandwidth than some volunteers do today can deanonymize any given user within three months of regular Tor use with over 50% probability and within six months with over 80% probability." "Some users experience over 95% chance of compromise within three months against a single AS or IXP." "Against an AS-level adversary, our results show compromise is highly likely in the worst case scenario regardless of user behavior. 45.9%, 64.9%, and 76.4% of Typical, IRC, and BitTorrent samples use a compromised stream within one day." etc > > What would be sufficient against a global passive attacker? A strong onion routed network that puts an additional mix network on top of the onion routing net? I'm anything but an expert but it seems that a requirement is to have constant rate links, or 'padding'. Which is something the tor mafia stubbornly resists, because they say "it wastes bandwith". But that's a lie because the bandwidth could and should be used for filesharing. AND THEN you realize that the tor mafia is so corrupt that they are even AGAINST file sharing, just like their pentagon-hollywood masters tell them to. Filesharing is a human right and anybody who actually defends human rights would help filesharing as much as possible ESPECIALLY when their 'anonimity' system could be made sensibly better by 'optimizing' it for filesharing. > > ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ > On Sunday, October 10, 2021 6:24 AM, Punk-BatSoup-Stasi 2.0 <punks(a)tfwno.gf> wrote: > > > On Sun, 10 Oct 2021 02:47:35 +0000 > > PrivacyArms privacyarms(a)protonmail.com wrote: > > > > > > That would mean: Tor is dead, right? > > > > > Right. Actually that's something that tor's 'designers' knew and admitted since day 0. Ask fairbrother.

It allows the US government to attack people all over the world by providing 'anonimity' to US criminals, but it doesn't give the same ability to people who oppose those US criminals.

On the other hand, yes, you can certainly hide succsefuly behind tor or other proxies depending on who your 'adversary' is. But I'd mention that a lot of people who sell drugs on the 'darknet' end up in jail, so it looks to me that tor is rather shitty. > > > > > Also, note there's an attack that doesn't use traffic correlation, it only requires the attacker to see the (encrypted) traffic between you and your 'guard node'. > > > > > https://www.freehaven.net/anonbib/ > > > > > look up "Website Fingerprinting" > > > > > > ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Original Message ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ > > > On Sunday, October 10, 2021 12:43 AM, Punk-BatSoup-Stasi 2.0 punks(a)tfwno.gf wrote: > > > > > > > > On Sun, 10 Oct 2021 01:06:19 +0100 > > > > Peter Fairbrother peter(a)tsto.co.uk wrote: > > > > > > > > > Also any traffic which goes through the US or UK is traffic-compromised. > > > > > > > > actually it's any traffic going through networks 'owned' by the jew-anglo-US nazis.

I am sick and tired of being told every five minutes that Julian Rand Paul Assad is closer than ever to becoming some great dictator journalist or emperor publisher. HE LOST. He’s not in any position of power. He’s a broken senile loser rotting away in isolation. He’s not somehow magically still in play. It’s a joke. The more obvious it becomes that Assmange is finished in politics, essentially finished in life, and clearly on track for a Dread Butt Pirate grade prison, the more the corpse-media and the gas-mining pundits ratchet up the hysterical fiction about Wikileaks being closer than ever to a magic comeback. For lack of any other term to more adequately describe it, this is fucked news.

Buterin’s indictment of Btc maximalists is about as deep and meaningful as Trotsky’s critique of Stalin. http://socialistreview.org.uk/321/slavo-zizek-presents-trotsky-terrorism-an… “… Making it mandatory for businesses to accept a specific cryptocurrency is contrary to the ideals of freedom that are supposed to be so important to the crypto space…” This is so weaselly the rotten little-shit should run for office somewhere. The ideals of freedom are clearly not something he values much - if at all. The ideals of freedom didn’t mean that much to May, Hughes, Gilmore, Young, Donald, Assange, Szabo and many others on the OG cypherpunks list. Why would they mean any more to a bunch of brain-dead, mincing gold-bugs? Discredited " Cyber liberty" lives Ethereum was reportedly premined extensively, it hard-forked in an abrupt, undemocratic manner and its present opacity, expense and netlag don’t inspire confidence. Conceived for degree’s of crypto-freedom - maybe. But a small ’ state-capacity ’ elite still appears to have more crypto-freedom in it than than the average ether-huffing plebian. All this aside from the very Assange-like creature that is Vitalik Buterin. This revolting creep has criminal, con-artist, carpetbagger written all over his sorry face. TL/DR Buttface babbling about ‘Crypto Ideals’ sends a powerful warning to all Dealers not to huff their own Product.
