Julian Assange on Rubber-hose proof (cryptographically deniable) file-systems (1997)
by John Young 25 Sep '16

25 Sep '16

Date: 6 Dec 1997 05:49:19 -0000 Message-ID: <19971206054919.5142.qmail(a)iq.org> From: Julian Assange <proff(a)iq.org> To: coderpunks(a)toad.com cc: cryptography(a)c2.net, cypherpunks(a)toad.com Subject: Rubber-hose proof (cryptographically deniable) file-systems. Sender: owner-cypherpunks(a)toad.com Precedence: bulk Here's a copy of some correspondence in relation to my implementation of a `rubber hose proof' (cryptographically deniable) file system (actually implimented as a block device on which you can mount any file system). I'm happy with the cryptographic strength of the system (but feel free to comment anyway). That said, I'm not convinced that my avoidance of media (i.e disk surface) analysis attacks (which could potentially show the pre-sense or otherwise of cryptographic file systems other than the "duress" ones) is entirely effective. I'd like some comment from gauss-ridden declassification guru's here :) [...] Here's how I'm implementing `aspects' in Rubberhose/marutukku; `aspect' is the term I'm using to refer to the cryptographically-deniable (i.e rubber-hose-proofed) "portion", of a maru extent i.e it's a different _aspect_ (view) of the same underlying physical block extent. I decided that random split lengths don't add to the security of the scheme - only 2x from my calculations - which isn't enough to warrant the increase in memory use and complexity involved. The extent is simply divided up into n splits (say 1024 or one every 256k, whichever is smaller). Each aspect has an encrypted 32bit block remap list (which is simply a linear array because of the fixed split size). A split avoidance bit-map is created from these per-aspect remap lists on instantiation of the aspects. An individual aspect looks like so (when saved): typedef struct { m_u32 keySum; /* key checksum */ u_char masterKey[MAX_KEY]; u_char latticeCipherType, blockCipherType; u_char pad[MAX_BLOCK - (4 + MAX_KEY + 1 + 1) % MAX_BLOCK]; /* block align */ } maruCycle; typedef struct { maruCycle cycle; u_char keySalt[MAX_PASSPHRASE]; maruLatticeKey latticeKeySalt[2]; u_char blockIV[MAX_FS_BLOCK_SIZE]; u_char latticeSalt[2*MAX_LATTICE_DEPTH*MAX_BLOCK_KEY]; /* must be 64 aligned */ m_u32 remap[MAX_SPLITS]; m_u32 iterations; maruCipher keyCipherType; } maruHeaderAspect; There are an array of (8 by default) of these constructs in a maruHeader. The smap accessor macros are simple: #define SMAP_SET(p, n) (((p))[(n)/(sizeof(maruSmap)*8)] |= (1 << ((n) % (sizeof(maruSmap)*8)))) #define SMAP_CLR(p, n) (((p))[(n)/(sizeof(maruSmap)*8)] &= ~ (1 << ((n) % (sizeof(maruSmap)*8)))) #define SMAP_ISSET(p, n) (((p))[(n)/(sizeof(maruSmap)*8)] & (1 << ((n) % (sizeof(maruSmap)*8)))) By default, each unused maruHeaderAspect struct contains random noise (except for keyCipherType, which defaults to being the same for all aspects) and is of course indistinguishable from a valid maruAspect without the associated key. Instantiation example: Say you have three valid aspects, a1, a2 and a3. Arbitrarily, you have chosen a1 to be the simple duress aspect (i.e ``you expect us to believe you have solitary letter of donation to the Polit Bureau Ball in your entire encrypted file system?! Do you know what this is Nikov? <opens trench coat>. THIS is the finest cryptanalytic device known to man. THIS is a RUBBERHOSE! *thwap* *thwunk* *boink*. Now... what's the *real* key Nikov... or should we call you... Nikolay Bukharin?''), a2 to be the limited disclosure aspect ("Dear diary. Nikita, Ivan, Boris and <some more guys I feel like selling down the Lenningrad sewage system> came over today and smoked a *shit load* of hash. Not wanting to offend, I had a toke, but like that capitalist dog ^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H^H illustious leader of the freeworld, was careful not to inhale.") and a3 has your ice-9 formula nicely tucked away. You decide one fine morning that you want to add an ATP pre-cursor as a catalyst to your ice-9 recipe of destruction (ostensibly, you plan to generate this stuff from cultures of genetically modified mouse liver cell mitochondria), and provide the a1, a2 and a3 pass-phrases. a1, a2 and a3 are decrypted. the aspect remap is parsed and used to create the physical block "avoidance" map (checking for conflicts along the way). Joyous about the frozen seas to come, you copy the ATP pre-cursor catalyst into a3 and the file system tries to write a new block - e.g b28 - to a3. b28 is translated through the a3 remap table to b-1 (unallocated). A random block remap number is generated e.g b595 and tested against the avoidance smap. If free, it is marked and chosen to be the new a3 mapping, otherwise the algorithm simply does a circular hunt for the next free entry in the avoidance smap. Naturally, reading only requires the key of the aspect you are interested in (divulging). Writing to one aspect without the keys to the other aspects will randomly trash them as new splits are assigned. Timer remaps, reads and re-writes: This would be the simple end of it, were it not but for magnetic domain leakage/disk surface wear analysis attacks. Theoretically, this sort of attack could used to demonstrate access patterns by the drive head in regions outside those used by the duress aspect blocks. What we want to do here is to make sure the non-data carrying magnetic/other properties of the disk substrate are as close to a Jackson Pollock painting as is possible. i.e totally random :) Three methods are used: 1) every few seconds, we read a random number of blocks within a split in a random location and write it back to that same location with a m-1/m (e.g 9/10) (recursive) chance of an additional write. 2) every-time there is a conventional write, there is a m-1/m chance of a full remap of the split concerned. 3) every n seconds a random full split remap. (maybe not needed given the statistical properties of the above - I need to think about this a lot more. its not simple) All aspects are defined to take up 100% of the marutukku extent from the file-system perspective - this is essential to our deniability scheme. This works fine with most file-systems - e.g UFS, because they only write to a small fraction of their addressable blocks when formatted - i.a few super-blocks and inode, rather than zeroing every block, and so split usage for a given aspect reflects population of the file system that pertains to it.

JY vs Sea Sea vs Actual Discussion
by David Smith 24 Sep '16

24 Sep '16

I've been reading the list for a few weeks and, I have to say, I am very disappointed. Cypherpunks used to be a group of individuals who solved problems, discussed solutions, and tackled the hard problems that faced the Internet community. There were flame wars, but they got resolved and the list got in with its business. This current shit surrounding cypher piggie is ridiculous. Who the fuck cares about how rude juan is or if Sea Sea or JY are the same people? It's stupid shit that's distracting the list from real issues that it could be tackling instead of spending endless time arguing with and over an obvious troll. Or maybe that's the whole point. Distraction from real work, real code, real idea discussion. Maybe that's the why. I know it won't do any good, but I appeal to the members of this list who are engaging in these stupid discussions to fucking stop it! Focus on what needs to be done, focus on ideas, focus on getting code written. At last, let me say I'm not jumping into the argument here at all. I'm sure this email will be challenged or someone will say something stupid in response. I won't bother responding to those. But I will engage in serious discussion with anyone who wishes to do so. I don't care about sea sea or juan or John Young or who they 'really' are. I'm here to connect with other REAL cypherpunks who want to get shit done. Not little boy and girl posers who like the idea of tangentially associating themselves with a movement that changed the world. My public key is below should anyone wish to use it to communicate.

[RUS] Ukraine - the amazing change
by Zenaan Harkness 22 Sep '16

22 Sep '16

For anyone following major geopolitical events in the last three years, the following is an amazing shift - from the floor of the parliament of Ukraine. I do feel sad for the people of Ukraine who have suffered immensely as a result of this particular Soros-lead "regime change operation". ** Julia Timoshenko to Victor Yanukovich: 'Come Back, My Tormentor!' (http://russia-insider.us9.list-manage1.com/track/click?u=fa2faf7034c3c3c413…) ------------------------------------------------------------ by Alexei Pankin on Thu, Sep 22, 2016 History seems to be going in circles.Back in the 1970s - early 1980s - the vast majority of Soviet citizens were ashamed to live in their country, ruled by Leonid Brezhnev, a senile asthmatic pronouncing endless inaudible speeches, basking in praise, bending under the weight of decorations awarded to him by his Politburo peers or leaders of ‘friendly’, or ’brotherly’ countries.Brezhnev died in 1982 and in 1985 a youthful and energetic Gorbachev came to power, leading the Soviet Union to choose a European market democracy — civilization, in other words.

group ("tribe") authority, and The State legitimacy
by Zenaan Harkness 22 Sep '16

22 Sep '16

In the mind of the middle of the bell curve, the state has legitimacy in the exercise of its authority, to a fair degree. This perceived legitimacy arises from the group: - the perceived consent of the group/ majority - the input/vote by the "governed" or "controlled" The state loses legitimacy due to - exercise of power beyond moral foundation - abuse of power by officers of the authority - duopoly: two parties both funded by the same oligarchs The legitimacy of any social order/ system arises from the shared, implied / tacit and or explicit, consent of the "governed". Consent can be: - implicit/ tacit - the people don't protest / object - the people vote at elections, and the rest is taken as a "mandate" for the winning party - explicit vote on every issue - like Switzerland - direct democracy style Possible foundations / principles / thought hooks: - delegated power and authority, by people, to an external authority - duration of delegation of any authority (duration of a parliament until the next election, vs duration as voted on by the people) - every activity is lawful except that a supermajority votes against it - every activity on the commons is unlawful except that a law voted by a supermajority allows it - When must a majority be merely a majority (50%+), - when must it be a supermajority (50%+ across all sub groups, or e.g. 60% or 75% across all voters)? Divisions of power and authority: - individual - family, small group - large group, corporation, state - geographic vs intention/ agreement to group - home level, street level, suburb, city, state, nation No authority except by consent of he who shall be imposed upon. Any change will require a concensus - speak your hierarchy of principles in a way Joe Sixpack can hear you. Choose a grand goal, but carefully consider the steps between now, and the end goal, and how to obtain agreement or mutual consent in conversation with Joe to a ladder of principles which ultimately achieves desired end goal.

Yes, but there isn't anything extraordinary about it. He's simply trying to distract his target. There isn't any profound scientific principle or insight behind that.

Magic tricks don't have much to do with this. Magic tricks rely on exploiting shortcomings of perception, "the hand is quicker than the eye", that sort of thing. But indeed nobody believes that those magic tricks are 'real' magic. If anything they prove that people are rational and know that magicians can't make rabbits dissapear - they know it's 'illusion'. If on the other hand Derren is 'staging' the jewelry store video, that means he and the guy at the shop are playing a part and the video isn't even 'illusion', it's outright fake. > > In the videos I linked to, he uses a lot of body language mirroring. > Whatever movements the subject makes, he mirrors with his own body > language.

Torgate: Tor’s Branding Pivot is Going to Get Someone Killed
by grarpamp 22 Sep '16

22 Sep '16

Virgil Griffith- Research Scientist in Singapore Sep 4 Tor’s Branding Pivot is Going to Get Someone Killed Aka, human rights activism meets the Cobra Effect Three weeks ago, The Tor Project, Inc. published their Tor Social Contract. The contract was covered by the media, but the media focused on the policy not to backdoor software (as though that were surprising?), and regrettably, missed the real story carefully hidden in the first bullet: 1. We advance human rights by creating and deploying usable anonymity and privacy technologies. ... ... ... Tor’s branding pivot is misguided, damaging for global privacy, and ironically, harmful to Asian human rights. Anonymity requires not just company, it requires diverse company, yet Tor has increased the barrier-to-entry for all non-HR Tor users. This something Tor has brought upon itself, and they are knowingly throwing their most vulnerable users under the bus. After seven years of proud service to Tor including: founding Tor2web, Roster, and Toroken, as well as writing a Tor Tech Report and running several high-performance relays, I am resigning because: •Given my residency in Southeast Asia, Tor’s pivot creates nonnegligible risk for me personally. •I do not trust an organization which prefers reaping modest public relations benefits within comparably cozy jurisdictions over the security of its neediest users risking imprisonment. Tor is carefully positioning itself away from the efficacious privacy promotor it used to be.
