Hi Gozu-san,
thanks for the links! They seem like good starting points for such a project.
Such a box would be, when designed and fully configured, a good and stable way
for people wanting to give their machines secure www access. Other than the
software config, I could also imagine certain hardware precautions that could
be made. For example, such a device could, in theory, come with a static ROM
that contains the software in a way which can't be altered. The dynamic info
required to run Tor could then be stored in a RAM (e.g. directory / cirquit
info, logs, etc) and would be discarded immediately once the device is
disconnected from the power source. The advantage of such a setup would be that
it wouldn't store more data than required for sure. However, I guess updating
Tor, or any other packages, would be impossible in that case. Still, I do like
the idea of having a black box that takes care of anon web resource access and
privacy control. Guess I'll keep researching and working on th
is, and see what I come up with! If anyone would like to help, suggest ideas
or thinks this would be total nonsense, please let me know! I'm new to working
on such projects and have some general ideas at the moment, so this is also
kind of exciting for me.
Robin
