  1. I am using TOR browser today for all my browsing needs. So far most of the websites that I go to are working fine.

  2. Now my website is also available with a .onion address. Open it in a Tor Browser.

    Here is a rough guide to enabling Tor for a website running on Nginx on Debian/Ubuntu.

    🎉 **Nostr Renoter v1.0.0 is now available!**

    Introducing a fully functional onion-routing system for Nostr events. Renoter enables metadata privacy and anonymous routing through nested encryption, allowing events to travel through Renoter nodes without exposing sender or destination information to relay operators.

    **Key Features:**
    • Nested onion-routing encryption using NIP-44
    • Proof-of-work protection (difficulty 16) against spam
    • Standardized message sizes (32KB) to prevent metadata leakage
    • Replay attack protection
    • Multi-relay support for redundancy
    • Ephemeral events (kinds 29000/29001) that don't clutter relay storage

    **How it works:**
    Clients wrap events with nested encryption layers (one per Renoter in the path). Each Renoter decrypts one layer and forwards to the next node or final destination. Only the next Renoter is visible at each hop, providing true onion-routing privacy.

    **Get started:**
    📦 Binaries available for Linux, macOS, and Windows
    🐳 Docker images ready for production deployment

    To the casual observer, #cybercriminals can look like swashbuckling geniuses.

    They possess technical skills formidable enough to penetrate the networks of the biggest companies on the planet.

    They cover their tracks using technology that is arcane to most people—VPNs, #encrypted #chat apps, onion routing, aliases in dark web forums.

  5. @Heliograph @davidv @jikomayo @adamhsparks #session started as a fork of #signal that is designed to run over an #onionrouting system. It has more privacy features than most messaging networks have. Both the server and the client are open-source.

    I've been using #session for a couple of years now that #wickrme shutdown. In general, it it is good. It had a rough time for a while as it was Target targeted my a multi-month long #ddos attack, but those have seem to be resolved over 9 months ago.

  8. I wish we had a "universal" lightweight federated protocol for transmiting asynchronously messages. Kinda like email, but less text-y and with more emphasis in security and privacy, and designed to be a base for future federated services.

    Ideally it would be a bit like #OnionRouting but without the "double encryption" to save on processing time. (I want this to work even on #Arduino)

    Perhaps this could be my final year project for my bachelors in computer science. What do y'all think?

    Are you able to access #Epicyon hashtagged posts?

    - landTax (12.5-50% of rentalValue or a maximumRentalIncome),
    - break up the "#tooBigToExist" (CAGEFAM)
    - make #onionRouting the new internet standard, make thirdParty #dataMatching illegal to aid privacy and safety of citizens from #undemocratic predation,
    - (USA) break up bigPharma or do #singlePayer for #medications.
    - make #schools and govt FOSS only.
    - (if you don't like BTC) monero.

  11. A look at/inside Session Encrypted Messenger and more on end to end encryption and why. Sybil attack resistant onion routing (lokinet not tor) and a minimization of metadata (see previous video/writeup on metadata).

  12. The Tor Project is a non-profit organisation that maintains the Tor network, which allows people to communicate anonymously over the internet.

    You can follow their official account at:

    ➡️ @torproject

    The easiest way to use Tor is with the Tor web browser, which you can download from their site at torproject.org

    Are you familiar with #TorProject and the Invisible Internet Protocol (#I2P)? They use a technique called #OnionRouting to connect people to a #website anonymously.

    Such technology are the tools for the #NewInternet and as such we have become #OnionMaximallists.

    Just yesterday we shared an #Australian #organicMuesli business that operates fully over the 'NewInternet'.

  14. Il Progetto #Tor è un'organizzazione #noprofit che promuove la #privacy e mantiene la rete Tor (che permette la comunicazione #anonima su internet). Potete seguirli all'indirizzo:

    È possibile utilizzare la rete Tor tramite il #browser gratuito open source Tor basato su #Firefox, disponibile sul loro sito web all'indirizzo:

  17. We are seeing a lot of interest in #selfHosting in the past two days.

    As a #freedom advocate, I suggest running your services over #Tor or #I2P.

    These are surprsingly easy to setup. The #invisibleInternetProtocol (i2p) includes a #webServer by default, called #Jetty all you need to is change the HTML and toggle the switch to public.

    For #filesharing, I2P has #I2PSnark that allows easy creation and #sharing of #torrents, with the #privacy of the #onionRouting protocol.

    Use the #NewInternet

  18. @BalooUriza
    Some blockchains do provide #plausibleDeniability and combined with the standard #onionRouting, would help to provide privacy.

    What we see is all exchanges requiring google and cloucHore javascript to operate. It does smell of #massSurveillance, but it's probably worse than this, eg. #frontRunning intel, ability to bring down the crypto entry points etc.

    Not good.

  19. @alcinnz
    We believe that #networkLevel #anonymity can help to free society from #BigData and the #surveillanceState.

    Not all of #internet searches and page views, crypto transactions should be linkable to an individual. That's why we support #networkLevel #onionRouting and believe it ought be used for *all* internet browsing.

    You could say we are #OnionMaximallists, haha. Or #GarlicMaximallists.

    From the Session homepage:
    getsession.org/faq/

    * you can set up an account without giving a cell phone number or email address
    * source code is available for independent auditing, and for re-use under a range of #OpenSource licenses
    * messages are sent in a decentalized way, not dependent on centralized servers controlled by a single corporation
    * uses proxy routing (and later it will use #OnionRouting similar to #TOR) to avoid leaking #metadata about who you talk to and when
