Since using your android is, afaik, the same as giving them your phone (SMS), or alternate identity, it would seem obvious that this would work. And thus a non-solution in general. > You don't have an android phone? Many good folks that would make good use of a gmail account do not have such things. Similarly, many good folks that do have such things would surely not wish to associate the identity of such a thing (IMEI/SIM/account/location/life/etc) with any gmail account just in order to get gmail. So for many, this is out based on access and/or principle alone. > 1. Install the android sdk/emulator and create an avd.

Do you have any insight into why it works? Such as its use of a certain browser string, preloaded cookie strings, or other http parameters? It would certainly be easier for many people to simply mimic those in say firefox than to setup an entire development and emulation environment. _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
