As has been mentioned previously by the likes of Jacob Applebaum and others on this list, the Tor community has a good working relationship with LiveJournal, and they, as much as anyone, want to re-enable access from Tor, but also have to deal with abuse from the system. I expect that LJ will have access restored in a reasonable time, and you can always email their webmaster for more information. > I think that it is a new, latent method to restrict access to the LJ > through the Tor which certainly established by order of Putin's and > Medvedev's junta gived to the "SUP". I'd be careful blindly pointing accusations of association around. These types of statements of opinion don't serve to endear the Tor community to anyone, much less to those services that welcome the use of Tor. -- Marcus Griep —— Ακακια את.ψο´, 3° *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to [email protected] with unsubscribe or-talk in the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
