Just lol at blocking Cloudflare. They seriously think this will being down the number of pirates?

I think in going to switch from XFCE to KDE just because the XFCE merit of using the least amount of the resources is no longer a reality. I miss LXDE

Thank you for the explanation. It would suck to put down money just to run a nym relay. I was interested in lokinet too but I wouldn’t want to spend more than a small VPS, really

Impressive, I didn’t know AirVPN accepted XMR. That greatly influences my decision about them vs PIA and others. I wanted a VPN which I could pay for anonymously and could torrent with (open ports)

I think PIA is decent for torrenting and Mullvad for privacy

Does TOR suffer from Sybil attacks? I admit I don’t know what that is, I’ll have to read about it

You’re right but if it’s something that sensitive I’d rather use TOR/I2P

Why do we care about their ownership if it’s proven that they don’t log and let you forward ports?

Ah I thought you meant during signup. I thought they were audited and provided proof that they don’t log anything? Is that fake?

Yes, Nym is new. Their mixnet has a lot of similarities with TOR.

What do you mean by “cost of maintaining a server”? I don’t think resource requirements are any different from TOR relays or exits.

It is possible in theory but I assumed they weren’t lying when they said over 800 nodes exist in their network.

Yeah maybe I should’ve put Nym as “of interest” rather than giving off the impression that it’s at the same level of reputation as Mullvad and IVPN

Over TOR?

Wait don’t they take crypto? Just fake your details

Mullvad, IVPN and Nym (not tested with audits yet, do not trust as much as the other two).

For clearnet browsing. PIA, AirVPN and Windscribe for torrenting. Windscribe and PIA are probably good for either but this is my classification, take it as you will

Can you link to their court hearing, specifically where they refused to provide logs?

Also, do they accept crypto?

Use the image viewer used by TAILS

I don’t mind if people use LGPL or some derivative of GPL. All I want is improvements to the source be published, and MIT simply doesn’t enforce that. I have no intention to force companies to publish their code that they have worked on for a long time - doing that never really helps. But I do want them to publish changes they make to already FOSS products so the author and the community can benefit.

Thank you for your work. If people like you were all around us, then I wouldn’t mind as much projects using MIT since we would still see contributions. But I doubt there’s that many people out there like you. Thank you for contributing to FOSS.

You can seed public torrents with Proton? I thought they did something to curb that a few years back.

What is your opinion on Windscribe and PIA?

MAC is generally more complex than simple Unix permissions. Whether SELinux is more complex than AppArmour is more up to preference in my opinion

ACLs are pretty good and have come in handy for me multiple times
