Neocities 'Security Statements'
by Travis Biehn 16 Oct '15

16 Oct '15

List; Neocities is making a pretty bold statement on their website - it seems to indicate that they are a safe haven from nation state attackers: "We also provide Snowden-grade SSL cryptography on all sites, preventing snoops from seeing what you browse." Is that an implied 'Snowden approves' there? These types of statements are fairly dangerous to any targeted groups. I can't find any details to support that they have the sorts of properties one would expect from a service resilient to those types of groups. -Travis -- Twitter <https://twitter.com/tbiehn> | LinkedIn <http://www.linkedin.com/in/travisbiehn> | GitHub <http://github.com/tbiehn> | TravisBiehn.com <http://www.travisbiehn.com> | Google Plus <https://plus.google.com/+TravisBiehn>

It appears as though neither JYA nor Cryptome have been compromised and the posts and tweets that have followed appear to be authentic JY. I've been a bit busy today, so - have I missed it? John's explanation of why he would keep access logs going back to 1996, when it was posted on Cryptome itself for years that logs were deleted daily or better - and he gave an affidavit to a grand jury stating that he had no such files? Or perhaps why he wants to sell out in the first place? If he's tired of doing it, I get it. If he wants to enjoy his remaining time on the planet instead of dealing with this BS, more power to him. But why go out this way? The legacy he has built with that site is being crushed. Without Cryptome, there would likely be no Wikileaks. No Manning, no Snowden. This isn't just about being identified in the logs, but their very existence. Those of you who insist on trying to divert the conversation away by blaming people for not being behind 7 proxies are just wasting space. We know, we preach it too! That is not the point. Personally, I don't give a fck if my info is in the log files. If I did, I surely would not be posting to public lists about it. I'm probably on enough "watch lists" already that visiting Cryptome isn't going to make a damn bit of difference. No, I'm concerned for sources that gave info and documents to Cryptome. For people in countries where they possibly face dire consequences for even viewing such info (jail, torture, even death.) It's not funny, and it's not right. From what I've heard, a bunch of us would really appreciate an explanation from John - in plain English. -Shelley

http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/10/14/sneaky_220v_usb_fries_laptops/ --- An internet mischief maker has built a USB stick that delivers dangerous 220-volt shocks to PCs, destroying them in the process. --- There is a link to russian blog from 8.oct.2015. In some thread here, jim bell wrote something like patched microwave oven can focus "energy" remotely. Does this method, if applied to desktop/laptop damages them remotely?

But so it goes. some of us must push the bounds, must we not? lest the measure of appropriate protection remain an abstract unknown. it's hard to tell afore how dice come down, as brave inspiration, or cautionary tale. best regards,

Nothing controversial there. But a wager they aren't also saying to their customers s/fraudsters/perfectly legit everyday privacy minded Tor users among the general public/ therefore they're insinuating Tor bad, they're biased, and they can just piss off. Further proof that companies like these could really give a shit about legit Tor using end users...every single one of them a profiteering data miner... against you and your privacy, and for them. https://www.iovation.com/about/partners
