i should mention that the Tor Browser Bundle when used as directed has been and continues to be most resilient to these attacks. while this is a very limited environment (no plug-ins, flash, java, etc.) these limitations are a feature ensuring your protection. when you start using arbitrary applications or plug-ins with Tor or any other anonymity service you open yourself up to great risk as described here for DNS, not to mention other side channels avenues using TCP directly. best regards, (hi pedants!) *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to [email protected] with unsubscribe or-talk in the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
