Actually freenode is not against tor but has some caveats and you need to be a 
registered user. Not sure if this works on the webchat however. 

http://freenode-dev.net/irc_servers.shtml#tor

They are more against other open proxies that end up hiding people say doing 
denial of service attacks agianst freenode. They made a special expemtion for 
tor even but not sure you can create an account. 
http://freenode-dev.net/policy.shtml#proxies

This does not seem the kind of policy set by people that want to take your 
freedom away. I think this is just a first reaction to trying to join freenode 
and finding out you can't initally connect using tor.

2016-07-27 Thread Israel

Hi,
I think I will try to make both sides here more clear.

scrooyahoo:
I want my privacy and digital freedom.
I also want to use the best distro ever.
I do not want to give more control to the people who are taking it 
without our permission.


others:
if you do not like losing some of these liberties you are free to use 
another os, even if this one is the best.

there is nothing we can do to fix this issue, because it is not our fault.
in fact this issue is not even Ubuntu's fault, it is freenode that does 
not allow you to use it.


bottom line:
freedom is very important.  we cannot let it erode, as history has shown 
us time and time again the horrid consequences of letting the government 
rule the people heavily and mass surveillance.
we cannot blame people making a great operating system for things that 
they simply do not have control over (other companies, other websites or 
domains like freenode).
The entire GNU/Linux community is doing a good job at protecting 
privacy, and freedom.  Some insist on only the purest libre experience.


Lubuntu's user group is the best, and Lubuntu is one of the best distros 
for low-end machines.  There are a few others that are really great, but 
Lubuntu has the best community and this makes Lubuntu stand above the rest.

Hi,

UbuntuOne is also needed to upload code to Launchpad and create a PPA.

It is required to edit a Wiki

I think in most cases UbuntuOne is a good measure of security for users, 
and it also provides more anonymity in certain cases, such as being able 
to upload information to a private bug.

So who is to blame?  Yahoo i guess?

I hope that i didn't make enemies here by raising some ethical issues i

So you consider TOR to be of questionable legality?

2016-07-26 Thread scrooyahoo
That might have got lost in translation a bit (english is not my native 
language)


The thing is this, more and more people are using TOR and maybe other 
things to get *some* privacy
And also those new *buntu users may want to join here to ask questions 
and help others.


BUT if Canonical chooses to build a captcha fence or let google build 
that fence around canonical. Then there is something wrong...


1. people are FORCED to give up their privacy if they want to join
2. Canonical has a choice to NOT use stuff with captcha or other crap.  
Just to allow everyone to join in while having some privacy


What good is a distro that uses FREE software if the community is not 
allowed to BE FREE?


The GNU dude is correct, FREEDOM MATTERS now more then ever.

I did not say google selects,

but google does provide captcha stuff that canonical USES
in fact Ubuntu Touch uses a privacy crippler that goes by the name of 
Ubuntu ONE
you need to sign in on U1's webpage that has a google captcha privacy 
crippler.


Fun part is this that Ubuntu browser on touch gives GOOGLE page that 
tells you that Ubuntu's browser is not compatible with GOOGLES CAPTCHA's 
The bug is filed on launchpad somewhere and confirmed by someone from 
canonical.


So Canonical defenately had a CHOICE there. The choice to put a google 
captcha on a Ubuntu webpage.


that's separate from freenode, but in a way the same choice..

It will be interesting to see what choice is going to be made there.
1. choose to remode the captch
2. make google browser crippled enough to 'support' captcha to snoop 
peoples idenities.


Canonical may use the word Ubuntu, but they are letting it slip...

I became an Ubuntu user because i thought they really cared, so now i 
hope to see how much Canonical cares.


I'm well aware about corporate pressures, but i don't care about that, 
does Canonical make it's philosphy true, or is it just a meaningless 
marketing lie?


http://www.ubuntu.com/about/about-ubuntu
http://www.ubuntu.thiyagaraaj.com/Home/about-ubuntu/ubuntu-philosophy-meaning

My philosophy:
When in doubt, aks questions, when answers are not clear enough, ask 
more questions.


I use Ubuntu now for more then 8 years, so my question are not out of 
thin air.


And i realise that the Lubuntu list is not the best place to ask this, 
but the discussion started here and I don't want to leave open ends if 
possible.


I ask these questions because i care.  And from your answer i feel that 
you also care. But we experience the privacy issue in a different way.


As you can see, i have looked a little deeper the past few days and 
discovered that there where a few choices that could have been done 
slightly different.

Hi Narcis,

better to exaggerate a bit then to ignore it?

the fact is that it's WAY out of proportion


I as a human try to get a little bit of privacy, and the whole US based 
IT industry does everything in its power to figure out who i am.





And yeah, i do agree with you, Lubuntu is the nicest version of *buntu. 
But this stuf is happening to me here... so i complain about it here,,,



I'm just a bit pissed about it, Google invaded *buntu with captchas??  
those captchas come from google or not??



So i understand that you find that i may overreact a bit, but if *buntu 
in general had done some thinking about this then there whould have been 
no need for me to overreact. So that ball is still on *buntu's site of 
the field.  pissed people tend to overreact a bit...


And hey, i first got a NEW mail account to be able to even communicate 
in here!


Then there is a Bug day that i really like, and i want to take part. 
(but with some basic privacy)


And i just get pushed AWAY with captcha crap.

THATS A BUG, so i hope someone has a look at it and manages to fix it. 
:-)


I'm not against Lubuntu in any way or form, i LIKE Lubuntu, but this 
captcha shit hinders me to help this project, it's difficult enough to 
deal with the tech stuff sometimes, and this CRAPCHA crap on top of it 
is REALLY annoying.


I'll try to end this discussion now and focus on Lubuntu. I hope that at 
least the captchas go away, its backwards annoing and disrespects my 
privacy.



Again i really appreciate what the Lubuntu team has accomplished.  And i 
hope i can help to catch bugs.  ..but then i get bullied with 
catcha's...


That's all
  :-)

So goolge manages to obstruct Lubuntu's progress with captchas,  a very 
strategic move to demote the competition and give android and chrome yet 
another advantage?  Does that make sense?

This is not a community-driven OS distribution, but there is enough

Hi,
In my experience if you want to know what your computer is doing, and 
every single thing is hand picked to provide the best 
security/privacy/etc...
Use Arch.  It is pretty easy to install (if you like terminals) and is 
really configurable  The FSF advocates Trisequel GNU/Linux so that 
might be another option for a preconfigured privacy respecting distro.  
There is no proprietary firmware so things may not work ccorrectly on 
some hardware.


If you do not want to use a terminal, there is not much you can do to 
ensure much of anything, though..
IF you want to go ALL out, you can use LFS... but that is a bit overkill 
unless uyou really are just looking to learn more about GNU/Linux

This is not a community-driven OS distribution, but there is enough
flexibility to be a decent GNU/Linux distro.
People who focuses all efforts to personal+community freedom and privacy
choose other distributions, and in that other collectives you will find
more people nearer to your minding.

privacy is undermined by whole automated systems that keep kicking me
around until they still have my details...

It's just BRUTAL, and Canonical / *buntu / freenode should not look away
from this shit.

Before WWII the people in germany looked away / did nothing / followed
orders, and we all know how that played out right?

So i'm not going to igore this and sat *Sorry*  not my depertment.

I'm HUMAN and privacy IS my department, Without privacy I cannot be
"UBUNTU"

Afterall Ubuntu is an ancient African word meaning ‘humanity to others’.

So if this is not the case then Canonical should not use the word.

And it sucks that I feel the need to defend myself here. (of all places)

Has it really come THIS FAR?

It's just SAD First the yahoo/gmail spam issue and now this.

What's next? will the US govrnment force me to wear a badge that says
PRIVACY EXTREMIST? O wait reCAPTCHA IS that badge!

Yahoo tags me, Google tags me, CAPCHA tags me, Paypal, Ebay, Amazon and
they ALL SHARE the tags trough DMARC.ORG.

Lets see how long it takes until Ubuntu One will join the DMARC cartel.


PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS

PLEASE.  this is going WAY to far.


I'm not willing to fight this fight, and especially not here. But i cant
keep my mouth shut. Everywhere i go.
CAPTCHA CATCHA CAPTCHA discrimination
Spam discrimination
ETC.

I now start to understand how Jews must have felt 75 years ago.

I'm pissed.

Nothing personal against you Simon, just large scale corporate sadness.

This is not an issue with Canonical, Ubuntu, or any Linux distribution for that 
matter. freenode has a policy against using Tor.

Sorry.

Re: [lubuntu-users] Lubuntu Bug Day Ubuntu On Air Session at 19:00 UTC

2016-07-26 Thread scrooyahoo

First bug i encountered:

Privacy invading reCAPTCHA crap - reCRAPCHA

I use TOR pretty much by default, not that i have anything to hide, but 
im not a nudist either
and when being on the ubuntu website Google captchas are snooping on 
me...


the part of the catcha that sends me 50k packages per image that i must 
select to do the snooping does not fit in the box,

so i dont have a clue what the question is, what images i should click

SO i'm FORCED to go naked into the IRC...  Not cool, not cool at all


lets see if i can get over this kinky shit, and join in. Not my style, 
but i'll try. If i can get trough the reCRAPCHA...
