Tor not really needed.
AFAIK (and I can't check it) is that 8Chan.com was only accessible via Tor. I believe it had a .oinion url. ISPs are using DNS poisoning to implement the government's attempt to discourage access to torrent indexing sites like the Pirate Bay. Once you have a magnet link, a torrent downloader works fine without a non-Australian DNS server or a VPN. -- Regards brd Bernard Robertson-Dunn Canberra Australia email: [email protected] _______________________________________________ Link mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.anu.edu.au/mailman/listinfo/link
