When I read Lee's above paragraph, I worry Lee might have gotten the idea that Fabio is speaking for Tor in some official capacity. So: Please be aware that Fabio is speaking for himself, and does not speak on behalf of the Tor Project. For my own part, I am perfectly fine with the idea of working *with* server operators to help them secure their systems, and with making sure that only secure systems are on the network. But efforts in this area need to work with the foreknowledge and consent of node operators, and not alienate our volunteer community. Also, the appropriate response to horribly insecure servers on the network would be to inform the operators and de-list the servers if they didn't get fixed--not to publicly post them but leave them on the network. That would be the worst of all worlds. yrs, -- Nick _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
