Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
blastbob1: faster
than any web on
tor atleast
pankkake: hmm and you would put orders
through bots?
blastbob1: i was dreaming about a irc based exchange on
the
tor network
pankkake: that's why
Tails is great: use it
to do your
thing and
this only
pankkake: unless you forbid any non-tor
traffic, like
Tails does
pankkake: actually, even
torbrowser on linux is quite risky
pankkake: TBB ships with HTTPS anywhere, not
that it is enough…
pankkake: the
tor project explicitely says you should not
trust exit nodes

pankkake: anyway,
the
tor list of isps is a good source even if you don't care for
TOR
Vexual: you can kiss
those 4 centibits goodbye nubbins
pankkake: for
the same price you can probably get a dedicated server now
pankkake: hehe, I remember when you could rent "shells" and
the number of resident processes was limited
mircea_popescu: Arvixe (hosting) Openly and respectfully state
that while
they dont permit a
TOR exit on shared hosting accounts, you are very welcome
to run one on a VPS account.
pankkake: some others
that automatically shut you down (I know one who monitors for both
TOR and Freenet)
pankkake: there are many other providers who explicitely say
TOR is OK
mircea_popescu: asciilifeform don't you find
that amazon love quite damning ?
pankkake: having

the real concern,
the real concern is

the police

today
ozbot: Dear Guardian : stop being retarded. pe
Trilema - Un blog de Mircea Popescu.
pankkake: while
the "ASICMINER weekly dividend drops below 0.005 per share in 2013" was getting rejected it is now
too late, as
the last one was 0.004
nubbins`: i
thought you were asking if i didn't have any nubs
mircea_popescu: and i gave clear orders no futher bets
to be accepted!!1
the entire system is breaking down!
pankkake: no. I
TL;DRed it. but
that was no reason
to say
that my concern was invalid - it was valid, and actually
taken care of
mircea_popescu: pankkake : did you read
the "At
the end of
this procedure,
the working slate will have been re-formatted, and will appear empty - as Cardano no longer possesses
the old block-cipher key." part ?
pankkake: see? don't deny
the issue, especially if it is already fixed
pankkake: asciilifeform: wow, so…
that what I was proposing!
pankkake: because
that's how USB Mass Storage works
pankkake: no, you can simply read
the whole filesystem silently, when it is plugged
mircea_popescu: because
this isn't a cool
thing,
this is a useful
thing.
mircea_popescu: this is how
the
thing is intended
to work.
there aren't and won't be unrelated cases glued on because people
think
they're cool.
mircea_popescu: the definitive protection
to
this is a) don't lose physical control of
the stick and b) destroy
the slate.
mircea_popescu: if you are real good and manage
to extracrt
the cypher out of
the chip and decode
the working slate, you might be able
to read whatever's not been destroyed on
the drive.
pankkake: you can read
the raw filesystem of usb sticks
mircea_popescu: if you have physical control of
the stick, you can remove
the working slate, but still can't read it, because it has a cypher.
pankkake: and
the worst
thing is, it's not a big deal
to fix.
there is no reason
to start going all like "it's not a problem"
mircea_popescu: if you have remote control of
the connected pc, but no physical control of
the stick,
mircea_popescu: hardly a goal. but anyway, let's go
throuigh
the
thing
to make sure we're all on
the same page, har har.
jurov: <mircea_popescu> yeah cause very easy
to use, very hard
to fuck anything up.
mircea_popescu: can you quote where
this goal you imagine for me was stated ?
pankkake: again, if your product has no instand erase of its decrypted contents, it loses a great deal of attractivity -
telling users
they have
to shred
themselves is far away from
the goal of having an easy secure device
mircea_popescu: the definition of petulence is "i've not done anything
to date but i will declare your item "flawed" because i am upset
that you don't agree with what i
think is
the case".
mircea_popescu: pankkake listen man, sometimes you will confront
this situation where your imagination does not meet reality. people will
tell you
this, you will have
to somehow digest it.
