Just one venue (tor-talk), which is why I am reluctant to continue this discussion here, since subscribers to this list are often less technical-minded, and less immune to the expected flamewars. In any case, I am not claiming anything you imply about the Tor Project, I just dislike the usual American mindset of wishful thinking and ignoring the facts. Pretending that a project like this has no conflicts of interest is an obvious example of such wishful thinking, which is the reason I replied to Roger. > After all, the Tor Project could also employ some sock puppets to follow > you around various forums asking why you don't feature any testimonials > from child pornographers on your own Liberate Linux's page. I don't actually have any objection to that. Technical points should be technical, and who makes them is less important. I have encountered a review including some coverage of Liberté Linux on a site that is apparently some kind of venue for supporters of legitimizing pedophilia, but didn't include it on the site, because it seemed like partial translation of one of the everything-and-a-kitchen-sink howtos that are floating around on Pastebin. Likewise, I don't need to find excuses to not to add a desirable feature because it might be misinterpreted by whoever brings politics into the project. -- Maxim Kammerer Liberté Linux: http://dee.su/liberte -- Unsubscribe, change to digest, or change password at: https://mailman.stanford.edu/mailman/listinfo/liberationtech
