Have you heard of yggdrasil then? It sounds like it would be a better match for your use candidate yggdrasil is a "greynet". End-to-end encrypted, self-organizing via DHT, but no onion/garlic routing. Has interop capabilities

I2P has a community of people that actually use the darktubes, as opposed to Tor. 99% of Tor users use Tor to browse the vanilla internets just. There is no real 'Tor community'

Yeah. It's fortunate that we are not psychopaths hellbent on causing mayhem.

A far more effective way to sabotage the infrastructure would be to plant a bomb there, in the hole. It does not even have to be a functional bomb. It's enough to just make the repair technicians fear for their lives. It will take a lo

If you are able of imagining the future, and capable of logical coherent thoughts, the statement "the need for quantum computers remains small" is just... damn narrow-minded and perhaps just plain stupid. If you can shave off a fa

Maybe the blockchain is meant for "offline" transactions, when neither part is in contact with the Main Server. Disclaimer: I dont know

The reason for this is, among other things, systems programmers wrote the UIs in 1983. Today random twenty-years-old web-muppets write the UIs. The system programmers of 1983 were used to low-level programming, and most of them had probably

Correct me if I am wrong, but... If I just make sure that incomming packets that are destined for the VPN LAN are dropped, this attack does not work? Of course there are such rules in our firewalls?? Is everyone walking around without any

The article essentially reads as "we payed lots of monies for a mediocre scanner, and then we discovered that the FOSS nmap did everything we needed. So we took nmap and added a little bit of extra, a web interface, and gave it the nam

Proxychains and especially socat är really handy tools for borrowing through filtering firewalls. Socat is somewhat difficult to use though. But IMHO the best one.

Power hierarchies are part of human nature. We always create them, the super-nodes. This is not limited to computer networks. We do it with relationships as well, how many does not know of Madonna and Justin Bieber, compared to random Joe?

The experience of ego-softening, or even complete ego-death, is something that some psychedelics bring to their users. LSD, mushrooms and especially DMT does this. Many normal humans will not know that this experience is even possible, or m

LOL. I wrote about half of the wikipedia article that Google is using to explain how their quantum computer works ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_logic_gate ) Should probably had done that using a pseudonym, and

They make the most sense if you want lots and lots of simultaneous clients. Plus it gives you a little bit of safety if you write crappy code. Typically not suited for embedded. (Assuming you mean embedded as in severely limited in resouc

Just keep bombing somewhat random people, year in and year out. Are we at the 2nd decade of this yet? This way I promise no one will join the rebells. Why would anyone join the rebells just because their families are slaughtered? That'

My grandfather says crazy stuff like " oh, but we will be in the grave long before this turns into a problem " whenever topics like this emerge at the dinner table. There is a little psychopath in each one of us.

You are the most free when you have nothing to lose. A failed suicide attempt can be thought of as that Every Single Moment from that point in life is a Bonus . I know because I was there :) I should have died a few years ago, but didnt.

Getting a job at a huge megacorp has shown to be a failure for me. Why? At my previous job - a small firm - I spent 8 hours actually working, each day. At my new job I am doing bureaucracy all days long, and very little actual work. Sometim

It took a couple of paragraphs for me to realize what the article was about. I thought it was "Parasite CEO", that the boss is doing nothing while also stealing company resources.. arguably a somewhat common phenomena. But it&#x27

It made me stop and think about it for a while. It feels like I learned on a deeper level than if s/he had just explained it. . . . But the takeaway here is, I think, not to make us better C programmers. I think the takeaway is that C

Stuff breaks when it is hacked. State actors are now targeting whole populations. It takes less and less time to enumerate the entire IPv4 address space. Knowledge about hacking is becoming more and more accessible to a larger group of peop

Its not like that. Intel took shortcuts to make their CPUs faster. At least some of the chip architects working on their implementation of hyperthreading should have understood that they sacrificed security for speed - without telling any

Full end-to-end encryption, with occasional onion routing, is maybe the best path ahead. The benefit is that it does not require any argumentation with other people, noone needs to be convinced or won over, and that it makes sense. It costs

I know I should not post reaction-posts here. But this is Truly Horrifying in more than one way. Did they not even investigate your claim? Or did they just settle with labeling you a crackpot conspiracy theorist?
