I agree. And that, I think, is the point I'm trying to make - the fact that these points are debatable suggests they shouldn't be taken as assumptions in research. Of course you have to draw a line in the sand somewhere, because the worst possible cases preclude privacy entirely, but be aware, and transparent, about the nature of your assumptions. And be prepared to be disappointed - a lot of what we know to be fact today was dismissed by the mainstream as dystopian pessimism just a few years ago. My job is not to be a pessimist, though. Just to challenge assumptions :-) -J -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
