@noorul Oh! Yes. I've gotta stop posting while sleep deprived. Don't ever use #BitTorrent through #Tor! It's akin to downloading a 1.5GB movie on someone's $1/MB dial-up connection. How rude! Do use a #VPN though if you can. They're cool. Like fezes ;)

@noorul @joshim AFAIK that's also a concern with any other tech that uses #BitTorrent protocols. If it's something you're concerned about, I guess you can use a #VPN? Or maybe #Tor?

I'm going to take my #Tor-ified email server down. I need to use the hardware for other things.

I'm curious if there are any OS's other than #HardenedBSD that ship #tor packages compiled with CFI and SafeStack.

It drives me crazy when sites block access via #Tor to read-only resources (like articles)---it doesn't make much sense to me. It's probably a quick decision by a team of people that don't really care or think about it, but it has strong effects that in the best case discourage use of an important privacy/anonymity tool, and in the worst case outright prevent certain users from accessing those resources (if Tor is their only option).
A common workaround I use is to prepend "https://web.archive.org/" to the URL to load it in the #WaybackMachine from the Internet Archive. Sometimes websites block even that.
The Internet Archive does great, important work, btw. Here's a recent article that emphasizes some of the major problems they're solving:

I might give another try at setting up #Mastodon behind my #Tor-ified network. Registration using a .onion email address would be required.

Installing the latest Cross-DSO CFI with SafeStack update on my #HardenedBSD dev laptop over my #Tor-ified network. Let's see how this goes.

@maltimore @moonman @Wolf480pl Not an option. I spend most of my time logging in from #hotel_Wi-Fi, so #VPN and #Tor are essential. -

@wolf480pl @moonman Ah, but AFAIK, #Cloudflare is still hostile to #Tor and #VPN, Using either will throw so many CAPTCHAs at people that they'll just avoid the CF-fronted site. -

my onion #fediverse guide is almost finished! just a handful of steps left to flesh out.
i will be providing a disk image that you can flash onto an SD card as well for folks to can't be bothered to do the configuration by hand.

Now added to my local #gitea server, which sits behind my #Tor-ified network and has a v3 Onion service: #OpenBSD src.

Giving Tiny Tiny RSS behind my #Tor-ified network a try. I'd like to start self-hosting more services.
I have nothing against The Old Reader (which I use), I'm just hoping to migrate more services to Tor.

My road warrior #Tor-ified network setup, powered by #HardenedBSD, now has two mPCIe wireless NICs. :)
It's nice knowing that I can be fully behind Tor no matter where I go.

Alright. www/chromium built again for me, so I'm going to give it a whirl. Let's see how this works, especially behind my #Tor-ified network.

My interns spent 10 weeks fully behind the #Tor-ified network with an infrastructure based solely on #HardenedBSD. Even their laptops ran HBSD, the only OS I trust when doing this kind of sensitive research.
I'm proud of the work they've done.
