Before tor 0.4.4.7 I was able to build tor with the latest versions of this software: zlib, libressl, libevent. Each of which I built as a static library. x86_64-apple-darwin15.6.0 (I tried static tor a long time ago and failed, and haven’t tried since.) Now, after much testing I find the only

Not too long ago I used Tor Browser to visit a website and found I was rejected completely. Not even a captcha. Clicking new circuit many times didn’t help either. At least their site wasn’t just a stiff arm giving me the finger. It actually had a note saying if I thought it was blocked in err

For best practices sake, I found it a good idea to double check my settings; since the GUI in the Preferences is no longer there. Typing “about:config” in the address bar, then typing “proxy.n” was the fastest way to bring up that option. Context-click/Right-click on that line, a menu pops up

A few-days-old review. Since Brave is the browser for OnionBrowser on iOS, I figured I’d read the article. https://www.pcworld.com/article/3453376/brave-10-review-this-excellent-privacy-focused-browser-can-make-you-money-too.html > Not only can you open a private window, but you can open an eve

[tor-talk] Accessing .Onion Service From Mobile

Dear Tor-Talk, Once I heard about Tor's abilities to get a service out past NATs I was very excited. Now I am stuck trying to reach it. I'm trying to figure out the pieces of synchronizing my to-do list from my computer's WebDAV server with my mobile device. On my mobile there's a companion

2019-05-19 Thread d...@foundingdocuments.org
I have a confession to make. I have probably blocked Tor, unintentionally at least. But any blocking I’d turned on has been turned off. Maybe for up to 14 years it’s been pretty easy for website operators to see basic log information like IP addresses connecting to the website and CPU use. O
