hello. im starting this as a new thread, as my question is only inspired by the discussion above.
in the TorFaq ( https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ ) it says: "Why is it better to provide a hidden service Web site with HTTP rather than HTTPS access? Put simply, HTTPS access puts the connecting client at higher risk, because it bypasses any first-stage filtering proxy.. " the answer in the FAQ refers to privoxy. so i wonder now: is this answer obsolete meanwhile? or is it still the general recommodation to run hidden services without https? is the server (hidden service) privacy threatened by using https too in any way? the FAQ also says: "These objections all apply to HTTPS, TLS, SSH, and generally all cryptography over Tor, regardless of whether or not the destination is a hidden service" which i think is causing some confusion. startx *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to [email protected] with unsubscribe or-talk in the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
