Wikileaks releases TPP Intellectual Property chapter in full
A few days old, but I didn't see it up on Cryptome. I'm getting intermittent 403s when trying to access the main page at https://wikileaks.org/tpp-ip3/. If so, try going to the first page of the document which gives you the option to download the entire pdf: https://wikileaks.org/tpp-ip3/WikiLeaks-TPP-IP-Chapter/page-1.html Direct link to pdf: https://wikileaks.org/tpp-ip3/WikiLeaks-TPP-IP-Chapter/WikiLeaks-TPP-IP-Chap... -Shelley

I'd wondered about that too, so before posting I tried it without Torbot (for science.) Same thing. Intermittent errors are not an uncommon occurrence at Wikileaks, especially right after posting new info of wide interest. There are many mirrors for when the .org site is down as well. -Shelley

My first thought was that an error in the 4xx range was an authentication/authorisation error (henc the suggestion of blacklisted Tor exits). Error 403 states that your request was authenticated but the server refused to return content to you. This would be expected for blacklisted IPs but as you stated, using clearweb IP addresses you got similar behaviour and thus would reduce the chances that this is due to blacklisting. The fact that you get a 403 means that the operating System is not suffering any issues as it is passing the request up to the daemon software (in this case nginx if the http headers are to be believed). So nginx itself is functioning well enough to return the 403s and therefore my guess is that it is refusing some requests in order to avoid increasing load. I would expect this is by design in order to avoid uncontrolled failure of the daemon. Of course, some of the above is guesswork and so I could be completely wrong :D On 13/10/15 18:50, Shelley wrote:

Right, that's what I meant. Server load balancing issue, etc. I mentioned the mirrors for convenience sake, not because the whole site was down (it obviously wasn't, 403 =/= 404) -S

404 != "site is down" ;) -- Pozdrawiam, Michał "rysiek" Woźniak Zmieniam klucz GPG :: http://rys.io/pl/147 GPG Key Transition :: http://rys.io/en/147

My brain and my fingers aren't always working in tandem these days. I meant that if i could access the document page by page, it is obvious that the entire thing wasn't being returned as forbidden and likely not an exit node blacklisting issue. Mirrors are also handy for "not found" errors. I should be more clear in what I type (or not reply when I'm distracted) But I also know you knew what I meant, don't make me bite you ;) -S
