I'm not entirely sure what you are suggesting? Are you suggesting we leverage specify some portion of a SHA1 hash and require that the Tor clients trying to edit Wikipedia create a hidden service key that ends up matching that? Or are you suggesting that we do something involving requiring editors using Tor to create a hidden service with a certain hostname (are those hostnames called descriptors, I think they are, but I'm not 100% sure)? Or something else entirely. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (MingW32) iD8DBQFULVwtRHoDdZBwKDgRAgq9AJ9Nn18aeRxWkGe9m91AOmB86FAkJQCfZauN d93BMkJBRc4tTijQFsgXdi8= =5XZP -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
