based on feedback, here is what i intend: 1. A torrent of: USB-1.rar USB-2.rar Update-13-1231.rar each of these have an accompanying signature from John. i will include a magnet URI. 2. The same files on a hidden service with nginx and HTTP/1.1 range request capable (resume-able) 3. An extracted collection of all relevant files, which can be rsync'ed from hidden service or browsed directly. note that this is a point in time archive from June 2014. please donate to John as i hate to think i would be taking revenue from his pocket with this setup! best regards,
Disrupting the originals inhibits verification with others who possess mailings and should be avoided. Supplementation is fine. There's this if you don't mind blobs. http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm RAR is proprietary. ZIP is not compact. Assuming Cryptome's working platform is not an opensource Unix, I'd definitely consider switching to 7z, which works on or is shipped with Linux/Win/BSD/Mac, is opensource, and produces great compression ratios. xz is another fine choice. There are probably prettier GUI's for lzma/lzma2 out there if desired. http://www.7-zip.org/download.html http://tukaani.org/xz/ 917504 1.xz lzma2 1718180 1.7z lzma 1873481 1.rar proprietary 2247179 1.bz2 b-w-huff 3341315 1.gz lz 3345104 1.zip lz 13323604 1.tar (wget src)

Please put a contact key on your darknet announce.
OpenPGP at its best.
Please no clearnet website/dumps for files. You're not teaching anyone how to use crypto tools by giving them the easy way out. Make them download and use Tor, I2P, Freenet, gnupg, sha256, whatever. You can put those instructions on clearnet if you want.
i will include a magnet URI.
As for torrent... Tor doesn't have much of a darknet torrent community. I'd suggest seeding it on I2P, whereby others might pick it up there and seed on clearnet.

The original files can be rsync'ed as well. You may want to do 500MiB split(1)'s if resumes of large files become a problem (2GiB limit bugs, etc).
I still have Cryptome CD's :)
