- potentato, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Tor isn't based on Firefox, I have no idea where you got that impression. That's like saying TCP/IP is built on Firefox.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3You should be ashamed for being so ignorant groceryheist, you really should. But of course you are all fingers and little brain and this advice may not sink in too well. Just because someone posts an article about something technical or something that makes you think does not warrant your naive comments about your wardrobe.
Great article tention, thanks. Tor is great and so is TorPark.
Tor - Tor.EFF.org - Tor & Privoxy & Vidalia bundle: 0.1.1.26
TorPark - Torrify.com - latest version 2.0.0.2a
I tend to prefer TorPark.
"Imagine this scenario — a very small risk documented in a technical paper gets sensationalized in the blogosphere. Some number of dissidents and bloggers in places such as China abandon Tor. As a result, they might be arrested, jailed, or disappeared." - Agret, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2the "words" blogosphere & blogstorms were used in this article, ughhhh h4x indeed
- evilgold, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1A lot of people dont seem to understand the differance between "in labs" and "in real life". Its very easy to exploit somthing if your working with the developers and have a controlled computer lab to test with. Its a complete other story in the real world. And i fail to see how this exploit could actually be targeted at a specific user, since there are hundreds if not thosands of tor nodes across the planet.
- tbeseda, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1That's funny, I just set up Tor today after reading more and more hype about the RIAA and their crusade against college students.
Perhaps there is a better solution? - agentbad, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Use an open wifi with tor and you are gravy.
- drakethegreat, on 10/12/2007, -2/+2Wow that attack seems very insanely hard to pull off and almost unrealistic unless its the RIAA and even then if Tor popularity increases and they implement the changes I doubt this will ever really matter.
And they say its the mass media thats sensationalist... - megalopata, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Thanks a lot! But my mom told me such things don't worth my attention.
- mozarella, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Well, let me think...
- tbonez, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0my name is tor. weird to see it written like this
- DrScott, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1I think this is just because they have not had time to look into all the holes that came with Firefox 2.0 (the bowser Tor is built on). From what I picked up on the Tor homepage last night (looking at the story on Digg about the portable Tor browser), there are older versions that are more stable.
- groceryheist, on 10/12/2007, -10/+2Well i guess I don't need to be worried about the FBI watching me yet...
As long as I keep my tinfoil hat taped down nice and tight...
