joepie91 |
midas: the answer is "the trust status of TOR has not changed" |
14:35
🔗
|
joepie91 |
you can either trust peer review of the codebase, or review it yourself |
14:35
🔗
|
joepie91 |
conceptually, assuming the code does what it is supposed to do, TOR is as secure as you're going to get |
14:39
🔗
|
midas |
ok, biggest issue is still the browser + plugins above tor |
15:05
🔗
|
joepie91 |
midas: yes. |
15:05

|
joepie91 |
and this will sadly always remain a problem, until society at large starts giving a damn about security |

yea or giving a damn about many other things instead of blindly going by what's "trendy" |

Tor is a great example of failure that's worth studying. |
15:49

SketchCow |
It has the same issues that PGP and others did. |

It was a safe, in the house |
15:49

|
SketchCow |
So watch who goes into the house |
15:50
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Watch when they haul out the safe |
15:50
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Watch who comes in and doesn't leave the house, and who leaves but you never saw them come in. |
15:50
🔗
|
SketchCow |
The harvard police just watched who had Tor running |
15:53
🔗
|
midas |
tor or a different service should be always active, ipv6-sec or something |
15:54
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
as far as i know, if you keep it really safe then they can't do anything to you, but the news about the breach was by users who haven't watched out |
15:54
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
and who used that browser with javascript and cookies that tracked them down |
15:56
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
i'm not the expert on this and i'm not using tor, only tried many years ago but i know enough from some guys |
15:59
🔗
|
SketchCow |
A lot of the interest in this sort of stuff is by people who've never had a finger broken in someone else's process of information retrieval. |
16:04
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
well if someone passwords their stuff and dont run windows machines and encrypt everything and then would run tor and ensure everything is in order i dont think they would be able to do much |
16:05
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
but very little people go through trouble of arranging that anyway |
16:06
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
most of them just choose easy security solutions, which i myself fell to often, but i don't have this really technical mind anyway but that's not an excuse |
16:07
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
but mosly you get naive people downloading the "tor bundle" which has been made more and more "easier to use" |
16:09
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
also, that flowerett "thing", it's a spambot or something or joins channels to leave, he's constantly being banned from another channel i am on |

or he just spies on shit |

better watch out for that guy |

Leo_TCK |
he joins/leaves |

DFJustin |
the issue is they flipped the default in the browser bundle between versions so that javascript was on when it used to be off |
16:12
🔗
|
DFJustin |
without really announcing it |
16:12
🔗
|

also "indigo@" i suspect it might be a bot of a certain indigo guy i once crossed my paths with in 2006.. |
16:12

yea but |
16:12
🔗
|
DFJustin |
so unless you are paranoid and check all the options every time |
16:12
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
the users should check that |
16:12
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
its not being paranoid |
16:13
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
its not a fuckin toy |
16:13
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
to be just run and used quickly |
16:13
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
but they made it that way due to complaints |
16:13
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
but thats the wrong approach |
16:13
🔗
|
DFJustin |
I don't think it's unreasonable to expect a security minded bundle to not make a huge change like that |
16:14
🔗
|
antomatic |
Exactly, surely a browser being used in that mode should be thoroughly ruggedised to ask for confirmation of EVERY SINGLE cookie and script, not just run on 'full auto' all the time. |
16:14
🔗
|
DFJustin |
everything can ultimately be blamed on you if you don't source audit all of your software and compile it yourself etc |
16:14
🔗
|
Leo_TCK |
its not a huge change, its just that it was made on by default instead, but one should watch out |
16:15

We care for several reasons. |
18:35

turnip |
Sharing is caring, we often share, so we care |
18:35
🔗
|
turnip |
That is straight-up logic |
18:36
🔗
|
SketchCow |
1. The site has been negotiating with a range of magazine publishers, and us mirroring all the content was threatening to kibosh those arrangements. |
18:37
🔗
|
SketchCow |
2. I already had all the stuff by the time they got angry. The collections are dark but I have them |
18:37
🔗
|
SketchCow |
3. We have plenty enough to add without worrying about that active and functional group's efforts |
18:37
🔗
|
SketchCow |
There. |
18:38
🔗
|
SketchCow |
Some of you might think I go soft here and there, but it's when there's no immediate example of something needing to be up on archive.org RIGHT NOW, especially when a non-public backup is there on the site in case we need to make it live. |
18:38
🔗
|
SketchCow |
I could have the 500+ issues public within 20 minutes. It's just being good right now with France's weird situation. |
18:41
🔗
|
godane |
ok |
18:43
🔗
|
turnip |
If abandonware is getting pissy over someone mirroring their shit, they're doing it for the wrong reasons |
18:43
🔗
|
turnip |
If you care about preservation, be happy that someone is helping, not territorial |
18:43
🔗
|
godane |
so this a problem with abandonware or the publisher |
18:51
