A suggestion to TOR [a proxy server]
hi all, i would like to suggest TOR to build some sort of online system, like a proxy server. where ppl just come and enter the address in the text box and hit 'surf with tor' or something. so that the same objective is achieved as in running the TOR client. its easier for pcs and mobile devices as well (as most mobile devices still don't support TOR). and i think, this can be a step towards the increasing trend of cloud computing, if i have correctly understood what is cloud computing. :D thanks. *** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@torproject.org with unsubscribe or-talkin the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
