By using FB Messenger, you implicitly expose your FB profile (or whatever you've not been able to make private). That would be an ideal way of figuring stuff out about the commenter.

YaCY (http://yacy.net/) does a pretty good job of that, in my observation. I've been running a node for a couple of years to contribute to the network. It seems to run slightly better on Windows but does well on a Linux box. One drawback that I've observed is that there aren't very many publically accessible YaCy nodes out there. It isn't (yet) as if you can plug yacy.example.com into your browser (or your provider's frontpage) and run searches. The perception, thus, is that one must run their own YaCy node to search via the YaCy network, and not many people seem willing to do that just to search for stuff on the Web every day.

You can list the contents of it with the following command: [drwho@windbringer live]$ unsquashfs -ls filesystem.squashfs | less It is worth noting that, if an unprivileged user can list the contents of the file, an unprivileged user (an attacker) can potentially unpack the contents of the file, tamper with them, and then repack them. I do not know if there are any measures to detect alteration of this file when TAILS boots, I haven't taken the time to go poking around inside the initrd.img or initrd2.img files (used by the kernel when TAILS boots) to see if there is anything of that sort. A cursory examination of the contents of the syslinux/ directory does not show anything of that sort. > but the configs should be on the encrypted drive. Along with > something Some of the system's configuration are. If the user runs `apt-get update` on a running copy of TAILS, the data will be stored in the encrypted partition in the apt/ directory. CLAWS configs are stored in claws-mail/. The live-persistence.conf file has me somewhat curious; it is a text file which maps directories in the running system to subdirectories of the encrypted partition. For example: /home/amnesia/Persistentsource=Persistent Where "source=Persistent" seems to reference a directory called Persistent/ in the root of the encrypted partition. It seems possible that one could edit this file to add additional lines to this file which would cause some number of files in other directories to be kept here instead (/etc, perhaps). I haven't tried this, but it seems like a useful experiment to carry out. A little poking around on the TAILS website did not reveal anything specific to that file, but I didn't look terribly hard. > like tripwire data, or at least some fingerprints and a file list > to confirm the libs haven't turn against you overnight.

At least insofar as being able to access the encrypted storage partition of a USB install of TAILS is concerned, so long as you don't repartition the device it should just work. I've tested this a few times (upgrading a USB key from TAILS v0.19 to TAILS v0.20) and the data's been accessible every time.

A hypothesis I've seen floating around (without evidence, that's all it is) is this: The FBI asked for and received web space on Freedom Hosting.

Bare-bones candybar phones that can only make and receive phone calls and sometimes send and receive text messages can be purchased for $20-$40us (GSM, with SIM). Pre-paid smartphones cost correspondingly more (starting around $100us). They must be activated online with a valid e-mail address. More and more stores are starting to lock them up on the rack or display them behind the counter, meaning some form of interaction with store personnel to buy them (I do not know how you feel about that, your call).

Assumption: Your traffic is being recorded.
Assumption: You can't transmit anything without leaking at least one
bit ("You're transmitting something.")
Case: Don't encrypt.
- - Your traffic is being captured.
- - This means all of your plaintext traffic has been captured and is
being data mined.
Outcome: You're branched.
Case: Encrypt.
- - Your traffic is being captured.
- - Whatever cleartext traffic you send has been captured and is being
data mined.
- - Cleartext metadata is being data mined. This means packet headers
(IP address, TCP or UDP port, nature of connection (TCP session setup,
TCP session teardown)) and whatever message metadata or routing
information (SMTP headers) is being datamined.
- - Whatever cyphertext traffic you send has been captured.
- - The cyphertext remains cyphertext - packet payloads, e-mail
contents, what have you remain unknown.
Outcome: The attacker knows that you encypt some volume X of your
traffic, of which some subvolume Y can be characterized as traffic of
type Z and the rest may or may not be recognizable as being related to
Z or some other protocol Q that can't be characterized yet.
Most favorable outcome: Encrypt.
In comparison...
Perfect outcome: Don't transmit anything. Just give up. But then,
why are you on this mailing list?

There is a problem with that: Traffic to and from small providers has to traverse the networks of the tier-II and tier-I providers to go any appreciable distance. We already know that at least some of the peering points are backdoored - Naurus hardware, if I recall correctly.

All of this said, I have a few questions. First, why are the two mouse clicks required to run the Tor Browser Bundle considered to onerous to use by many people? Seriously. I get this a lot. They won't use it because it takes two mouse clicks. Why has nobody given GPGtools for MacOSX (https://gpgtools.org/) a spin, commented on its UI, and made suggestions to the project? Five mouseclicks and a bit of typing and a keypair is generated and uploaded to the keyserver network. It even plugs into Mail.App and adds a button to encrypt outbound mail. Or GPG4win (http://gpg4win.org/) for that matter - nine mouseclicks and you have a public keypair. It even plugs into MS Lookout (I know, I know.. the idea brings the gorge to the back of my throat as well, but people still use it). Where are the UI critiques and suggestions for improvement? All I see is "Crypto is too hard." Enigmail plugs into Thunderbird and has a keypair generation wizard. I haven't used it but it's there (http://www.enigmail.net/documentation/quickstart-ch2.php). For crying out loud, what will it take? Baking this stuff into MovieOS? True AGI doing it completely transparently for us? Developing software is hard, and it's not done in a vacuum.

Before taking the exam I studied the ARRL's official Tech class study guide off and on for a couple of years (and did the practice sets for every chapter) and it was easily the most difficult exam I've ever studied for. Then again, I'm a coder and not particularly skilled with electronics (I thought operating systems and compiler theory were easy). That one has to study to take the amateur radio licensing exams puts a lot of people off. They just don't want to put in the effort "to sit around talking to people." I got that a lot from non-hackers when I was studying for the exam in late 2011 and early 2012. There is also the (largely correct) perception that amateur radio equipment is very expensive. A lot of it is. HT's (hand-held portable units) are much less expensive (and getting cheaper - thank you, Baofeng) but the common response is still "I don't want to sit around studying when I could just talk on the phone." > that mobile phones provide so many of the same benefits without > the licensure hassle?

The FidoNET protocol can be used for more than just dialup BBSes. It is a protocol for bundling the contents of message queues (subs), transmitting them somehow (not necessarily over dialup), synchronizing a local message queue (sub) with messages it doesn't already have, and occasionally adding files to file bases. It's being used by BBSes on the Net that are not dialup but still want to synchronize themselves; more precisely, the BinkP protocol (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binkp) is being used because it assumes a reliable connection, whereas the FidoNET protocol does not. - -- The Doctor [412/724/301/703] [ZS|Media] Developer, Project Byzantium: http://project-byzantium.org/ PGP: 0x807B17C1 / 7960 1CDC 85C9 0B63 8D9F DD89 3BD8 FF2B 807B 17C1 WWW: https://drwho.virtadpt.net/ "Why, yes, I do speak fluent Aklo." -BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with undefined - http://www.enigmail.net/ iEYEARECAAYFAlDiAtUACgkQO9j/K4B7F8FVpQCdHZjrXPy7qpP9L18VggParDaS FPcAn35nYlhwNhz6ROW3v82EZNwJOz4I =HmSr -END PGP SIGNATURE- -- Unsubscribe, change to digest, or change password at: https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/liberationtech

That might not be a good idea. Not only would it result in a list that can be used to identify nodes, but it also increases overhead and complexity. Perhaps 'best effort' is the way to go about this.

I think that quantum crypto needs to be explained in the 'book, at least at a high level. In some discussions I've had with people about crypto, someone's always brought up "Quantum computers broke all crypto anyway, so there's no reason to do all of this," followed by a mostly uphill fight to convince them that there's no reliable evidence that there are quantum computers at Ft.

For what it's worth, I was traveling OCONUS last week and was using TAILS v0.12.1 installed on a microSD card (the laptop in question was booted from a USB adapter).
