Would it not be fair to say that #vanguards is the #fdns of #tor ?

#netblue #firejail and #mikePerry really should talk to each other if they haven't already.

lots of factors come into play. There isn't just one easy solution that works for everything online. There are levels of tor just like there are levels of dns filtering and control.

****** Why have local storage if you have a secure and accessible global commons? Because there will never be enough of one, just more fences on the prairie? Could you keep out a Tailored Access APT even if you were primarily locally owned? *****

I wonder why p2p like i2p and yggdrasil have remained less developed than tor or dns. Has anyone got the i2p config to work well with ygg or torsocks as was envisioned?

#obliviousDNS is new and interesting R&D.

#VPN has definite flaws. Often acts more like a vector than a security.

#Veilid looks promising with #IPFS and the anonymity design. But it might end up like i2p, freenet, or yggdrasil without more development. Technologies like tor's #onionshare (which requires agreed upon share time) or ricochet-refresh #gosling (#rust) are useful if you don't want upload/download from 3rd party drives and the cloud. Everyone finds a need to share hefty files from time to time unless you like passing USB sticks around.

You know how #RichardStallman #GNU laments #javascript but also how nothing works without it? https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/javascript-trap.html
Alright, so say you torsocks lynx ( #KU ) #ProjectGutenberg. Alternately, you could use highest security #TorBrowser with #noscript. But have you tried #Vanguards #Whonix GW with #vlc ? There is a lot that can be done with vlc for media that wouldn't work in a tor browser (netscape-plus) with vanguards. You would think that there is more anonymity because more people use the more popular #browser / #terminal -plus method but there are trade-offs with functionality and less data leaking. Is less data leaking a form of fingerprint? @mokancan

According to recent findings by investigative journalists, a few years ago, German law enforcement were able to de-anonymise a suspect who was using #Tor. While many decried alleged Tor insecurities or vulnerabilities, @torproject themselves attribute it to the user's misconfigured software which lacked the #Vanguards addon that was “introduced to protect users from this type of attack”.

That's why I continue to use Tor wherever possible.

Is Tor still safe to use? | Tor Project

This blog post is a response to an investigative news report about a large-scale law-enforcement attack that managed to de-anonymize a user of an old version of the long-retired app Ricochet. This blog post aims to provide insight into what we know so far. Nothing that the Tor Project has learned about this incident suggests that Tor Browser was attacked or exploited. Tor users can continue to use Tor Browser to access the web securely and anonymously.

Es gibt zu der Problematik der Guard-Nodes seit längerer Zeit Research vom Tor-Projekt. Dies findet unter dem Stichwort #Vanguards statt. Für den "herkömmlichen" Tor-Dienst gibt es ein Plugin:

FĂĽr die neue Variante namens #Arti ist das mit eingebaut:
