I could set up an authenticated SSL proxy, with an IP in German address space -- if there's a simple package in Debian people are willing to point me to. Or you could do it -- I very much doubt the secret police of your country is good friends with the secret police in your friend's country (but don't take my word on it, investigate yourself). > I found this list of proxies some of which are anonymous...and are > changed everyday.... > > http://www.samair.ru/proxy/ If you can read that list, so can the secret police of the country in question. The point is to use an anonymous proxy which is guaranteed not in the list, and which connects via SSL (again, assuming that SSL is not forbidden/unusual in that country), so there's no way to look for keywords in the cleartext stream. The only way to do that is team up with a trusted party in neutral address space. > Is changing to a different proxy every day and using gmail...or > something similar a more secure idea? Don't forget that he should manually change http:// to https:// in his Gmail section -- EVERY TIME. He must never slip, even once. This also assumes that Google isn't cooperating with the secret police in your target country -- I certainly wouldn't bet my life on it. > I am not really sure how competent the authorities are in tracing > people back... my guess is they are not very good at it if it reaches > even a fair level of obfuscation...
