Tor Privacy and Resilience
Online privacy should be the default expectation for internet users, challenging the notion that constant surveillance is either necessary or justified. Many people first hear about Tor from dramatic news stories. These stories highlight the most controversial parts, making Tor seem like an entry point to the "dark web" or linking it mainly to crime. Words such as "dark web," "criminal sites," "hidden services," and "anonymous networks" are common, which can make Tor sound suspicious or […] -

ICYMI — this piece still holds up:
Messaging that works offline, encrypted end-to-end, and resists censorship isn’t just a “tech curiosity.” In an era of network uncertainty and platform centralization, resilient communication matters for activists, journalists, teams in restrictive environments, and anyone who values autonomy.

И да! Если абстрагироваться от персоналий:
Мысли следующие:
**Очередной звоночек** – даже если это действительно было недоразумение, сам факт отключения показывает уязвимость централизованных точек, таких как сайт. Сегодня ошибка провайдера, а завтра – целенаправленная атака, и пользователи без приложений останутся за бортом.
**Подтверждение децентрализации** – если бы зависела только от сайта, то всё бы рухнуло. Но приложения продолжали работать, что подтверждает саму идею Бастиона – децентрализация и отказоустойчивость.
**Проблема с массовым восприятием** – большинство пользователей воспринимают сайт как основной ресурс. Даже сам пост сделан через *bastyon.com*, что говорит о том, что значительная часть аудитории использует именно веб-версию. Значит, стоит усиливать информирование о приложениях и их преимуществах.
**Проблема доступности приложений** – когда сайт не работает, новому пользователю взять приложение неоткуда. Нужны зеркала, децентрализованные источники распространения (IPFS, торренты, P2P), а также информирование пользователей, чтобы заранее устанавливали приложения.
**Анонс обновлений** – интригует, но было бы неплохо конкретизировать, что за функционал готовится для Покеткойна и Бастиона. Иначе звучит как типичный маркетинговый тизер без деталей.
В целом, ситуация – ещё одно напоминание, что полагаться на централизованные элементы в децентрализованном проекте – рискованно.**Библиография:**

CW: research review
J. Vilalonga et al., "TorKameleon: Improving Tor's Censorship Resistance With K-anonimization and Media-based Covert Channels"¹
The use of anonymity networks such as Tor and similar tools can greatly enhance the privacy and anonymity of online communications. Tor, in particular, is currently the most widely used system for ensuring anonymity on the Internet. However, recent research has shown that Tor is vulnerable to correlation attacks carried out by state-level adversaries or colluding Internet censors. Therefore, new and more effective solutions emerged to protect online anonymity. Promising results have been achieved by implementing covert channels based on media traffic in modern anonymization systems, which have proven to be a reliable and practical approach to defend against powerful traffic correlation attacks. In this paper, we present TorKameleon, a censorship evasion solution that better protects Tor users from powerful traffic correlation attacks carried out by state-level adversaries. TorKameleon can be used either as a fully integrated Tor pluggable transport or as a standalone anonymization system that uses K-anonymization and encapsulation of user traffic in covert media channels. Our main goal is to protect users from machine and deep learning correlation attacks on anonymization networks like Tor. We have developed the TorKameleon prototype and performed extensive validations to verify the accuracy and experimental performance of the proposed solution in the Tor environment, including state-of-the-art active correlation attacks. As far as we know, we are the first to develop and study a system that uses both anonymization mechanisms described above against active correlation attacks.

Hello, fediverse!
We publish the academic open access journal Proceedings on Privacy Enhancing Technologies and host the annual Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium. We are a top research venue dedicated to novel applied and theoretical research into the design, analysis, experimentation, and fielding of privacy-enhancing technologies.
This account will mostly be for announcements about deadlines and events, but we'll also boost posts from our authors about their research, so follow along to learn about cool privacy things.
Please consider boosting so your pals can find us, too!
