Re: [GSoC] Improving Snakes on a Tor
The way to do better at that one is to teach users and service providers about end-to-end authentication and encryption. From what I've seen I don't think there is any realistic hope for any significant number of web pages to be served with end-to-end encryption (not sure what your reference is to end-to-end authentication) in the foreseeable future. Jim I take it that you don't consider HTTPS to be end-to-end encryption then? Because I don't see why it would be unlikely for at least sensitive websites to switch to HTTPS. // pipe *** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@torproject.org with unsubscribe or-talkin the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/

Of course HTTPS is end-to-end encryption! And, of course, it is already used some. We apparently have different assements of what the future holds and how quickly. Time will tell ...

Re: Help translate Orbot
Wow Runa, while I unfortunately can't help with any translations, I just want to say that that app looks wonderful and wish you the best of luck with it. Wish I had something like that on my iPhone! .w On May 15, 2010, at 2:20 PM, Runa A.

Right now, Orbot is only available in English and Spanish, but I am hoping that this will change really soon.

Re: Traffic shaping?
In this case, purposely 'shaping' the traffic so that it looks like something other than what it actually is (ie, not Tor traffic). .w On May 15, 2010, at 11:18 PM, and...@torproject.org wrote: What do you mean by traffic shaping? *** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@torproject.org with unsubscribe or-talkin the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
