[liberationtech] Has LinkedIn launched a borderline Denial of Service attack against Tor?
Hello all, For some time now I've been concerned about the inability of many Tor users to access LinkedIn - and more importantly, the fact that attempting to use LinkedIn results in a fatal freeze. It seems to me that something isn't right here, so I've written a short piece on it. I'd be grateful for any thoughts you have. http://www.privacysurgeon.org/blog/incision/has-linkedin-launched-a-borderline-denial-of-service-attack-against-tor/ Best wishes Simon _ Simon Davies Associate Director LSE Enterprise The London School of Economics Founder, Privacy International privacysurgeon.org s.g.dav...@lse.ac.uk Please access the attached hyperlink for an important electronic communications disclaimer: http://lse.ac.uk/emailDisclaimer -- Liberationtech is public archives are searchable on Google.

[liberationtech] Global analysis published today on government responses to Snowden disclosures
Hello everyone, I thought you might be interested to know that a report has been published today which assesses the responses internationally by government and industry in the year since the first Snowden disclosures. The scenario, I'm afraid, is not entirely optimistic. I've blogged about it on the Privacy Surgeon site and a pdf copy of the report can also be downloaded from there http://www.privacysurgeon.org/blog/incision/global-security-analysis-reveals-widespread-government-apathy-following-snowden-disclosures/ Best wishes Simon _ Simon Davies Associate Director LSE Enterprise The London School of Economics Founder, Privacy International privacysurgeon.org s.g.dav...@lse.ac.uk Please access the attached hyperlink for an important electronic communications disclaimer: http://lse.ac.uk/emailDisclaimer -- Liberationtech is public archives are searchable on Google.
