Tor in the Chronicle of Higher Education
Hello all, I was just linked to an article in The Chronicle of Higher Education about Tor: http://chronicle.com/temp/email2.php?id=zht45qPrsddjvvgfcjwWPjxhFwqxyfVX An assistant professor at Bowling Green State University is confronted by the university's network people about his use and advocacy of Tor. He's a bit lax with the technical details, but it's interesting to see Tor in a mainstream publication :).

It's not a problem to use a less common User-Agent string, as long as you regenerate it between visits. Have a look at: http://www.fabiankeil.de/sourcecode/uagen/uagen.pl if you're using Privoxy and/or a browser that understands Mozilla prefs.js files. You might also want to have a look at the or-talk archive, your discovery isn't exactly hot news here. Fabian signature.asc Description: PGP signature
Re: About http request of browser.
True, but that's configurable in most sensible browsers. In Firefox, check out the stuff in about:config specifically the general.useragent.* stuff. Better yet, get the "User Agent Switcher" plugin. ~Mike devel wrote: Hello, In some cases when OS version or architecture are not popular, I think that browser HTTP request can be bad for anonymity.
