Hi,
Apart from what has been replied before on this list, you should
consider using TAILS, the Tor live-CD, exclusively when you access your
blog. It is too easy to confuse browsers or do some other stupid
mistake, and booting into a completely different system helps a lot,
especially psychologica

What, like genocide? Various parts of the world tried that at various
times in history, it doesn't really work. Neither did the wars on drugs,
terrorism, guns, copyright or any other attempt in history to stamp
whatever it was they tried t

Hello, everyone. :)
First of all, I just want to give a huge thanks to everyone who's involved
with Tor. Ever since I started using it, I have felt a refreshing sense of
freedom and empowerment that I did not at all anticipate when I downloaded
the Tor Browser. I am now speaking up boldly on is

Maybe Tor-optimized-Firefox needs a default "safe browsing" plugin.
Also, maybe at least some pedo, etc .onion sites would voluntarily label
themselves.

For what it's worth, OnionBrowser is open sourced, it is for Apple

My point was that using Tor need not be inconvenient at all.
I agree that there's a need for a hidden services directory, but I gather
from what I've read that doing this isn'
Calls such as these, to begin systematic attempts at flagging
directories and removing links, are nothing but thinly disguised
attempts at imposing censorship and control on the Tor network. Let's
be honest and call it what it is.

No you can't stamp out the problem, it's a human/brain thing. And taking

Please do!
That said, you're already falling into a trap when you say "all the
directories". I know the person who ran "the hidden wiki" -- he shut

Agreed, but understand - I'm not suggesting that *the Tor project* itself
cull this content, merely that directory / wiki operators make a concerted
effort to at least clearly label the pedo dens so they can be easily
avoided by those of us who have a real issue with them.

Can't agree with this.
You can get OnionBrowser for pretty much any platform. Download and run,
end of story. I grabbed it for my iPad and within a minute I was up and
running.

This would be a public relations nightmare for the project and a very
bad id
Part of the problem is that Tor is really inconvenient to use. The only
people who hang out on Tor are criminals because generally, it's only worth
the trouble if you are a criminal.
Bitcoin faced the same problem. Bitcoin was used primarily by criminals

This guy is annoying. He's been emailing any address at Tor he can
find. I'm not responding to him any more.
Basically, he's asking for money to keep our wiki clean. He's implied
in the past that if we don't pay him, we'll be spammed ruthlessly.
