No it's not just you. Ever since Jakegate / Torgate Tor Project Incorporated has seemingly enforced lockdown, censorship, and comms hardening, beginning with their own silence and that of those they control. A chilling effect. Not helped at all by simple requests for transparency gone completely ignored by corporate principals in position to answer... https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/19794 Further complicated by Tor being shown to be not exactly strong against GPA's, certain other classes of attack, financing, etc. So the whole thing perhaps backfired over a few months to where people now feel they can't post freely to peers and/or just don't care to post anymore. At least that's one theory I've heard to explain the quiet. Feel free to suggest or show others. Don't get me wrong, tor and the project are really awesome in particular areas and totally worth following [1], just that some talk I've seen seems feeling the blanket pass to all areas has come and gone. Is that true and good or bad? I don't know. You'd probably have to look at the history of opensource projects, reasonably in the public interest, to determine that. And then talk about it to see further. [1] For example, multiplatform, great at hiding traffic content and sources from casual intermediate observers, exits all over the first world, fast, reproducible, pushing some legal boundaries, publishing research for review, etc. -- 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
