Hopefully you realized that working for the pentagon promoting trash like tor is a bad idea?
If Tor offers him a job, I'm sure he'll go to America.
I wouldn't be surprised if that happened.
But other Tor volunteers don't want him among them. Anyone with a mind knows Tor doesn't promise privacy. He was never transparent about Tor. He could tell the truth people, but he didn't want to.
I think being kicked out of tor is appelbaum's highest achievement. It means he didn't fully cooperate with the pentagon. However, appelbaum never ever talks against his 'ex' pentagon accomplices...
That's what someone in Tor told me years ago about him. And he brought it up himself,ı’m sure no one there wants him among them.
well that may be an indication of appelbaum having some good quality. Perhaps.
“Also, IDK how to say this, but Jake Appelbaum is not known for his leadership or ability to land a project or code quality. Ethics aside, I wouldn't trust him to plan a dinner party, much less a computer vision firm, yanno?”
I don't think most people working for Tor have a good “code quality”. It's not just for him.
yeah tor is a joke - accusing appelbaum of being an inept coder is just misdirection. Whatever the reason appelbaum was kicked out of tor, it was not a technical one.
And most of them have a good salary and a career. I'm also going to go over his doctoral thesis later,but there are much better books to study.
appelbaum just wrote : "As usual with this mailing list...we can expect some folks to dismiss matters...not discuss the substantial facts or cryptographic designs...attempt to distract, divide, disrupt, degrade, and destroy. The usual JTRIG playbook" OK, it seems that appelbaum should be clearly naming who the JTRIG agents are. But it also seems that appelbaum never replies to any message on this list. He's too much of a Cypherpunk Lord to do that...
