1. The user has set up the subversion source trees based on the
*current advice* here for anonymous checkout:
https://wiki.freebsd.org/PortsSubversionPrimer
% svn co http://svn.freebsd.org/ports/head /usr/ports
2. The user heard that Tor improves his anonymity, and decided to use it.
3. The user updated the sources through Tor and got hacked.
Where did this user go wrong, or where has he been irresponsible?
User gets an email saying his banking details are compromised, and to
update them now.
User clicks the link and gives banking details to phishing site as well
as having a keylogger and rootkit installed during the process.
User has bank account hacked.
Where did the bank go wrong?
Bank installs secondary security to prevent phishing/user realises the
site is phishing and puts in false details or aborts the input...
Keylogger is still on their system though because that was installed on
the first click before the page was updated because of a compromised
Microsoft code signing certificate...
Where did the bank or the user go wrong?
Maybe instead, user takes their phone into the local Maccas and uses the
hotspot there, as part of the sign-in they get a compromised app from a
local hacker that has been stalking the hotspot... Ding ding ding we
have a winner... can't trust the network, just like the Tor case...
etc
etc
etc
