[Tails-dev] VoIP-over-TOR
Hi, OnionCat provides a public overlay network. If a SIP-proxy ist put on top of OnionCat any dumb hardware-/software SIP-phone in the LAN can be used. On the OnionCat-interface I suggest to use 1. DTLS/SRTP with self-signed certificate created from the Tor Hidden Service hostname/private key for authentication and encryption 2. OPUS audio codec with forward error correction enabled as it is the most robust audio codec and adjusts bandwidth automagically 3. Use speed dialing capable proxy for hardware phones top map decimal numbers to SIP-URIs (blockchain as long-term goal, see https://forum.namecoin.info/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=1858) I also suggest to consider RTCWeb as Tor pluggable transport for OnionCat as it is encrypted by default, can multiplex multiple streams and ordered mode/congestion control can be switched on/off per stream.

How do you reproduce this? For me it is centered unless I resize the (virtual) screen, which doesn't trigger a move of the window. Can you reproduce that without changing the size of the screen?

[Tails-dev] 1st usability testing session results
Hello, here is some feedback we gathered at the first Tails UX session with NUMA experiments. First of all, it was really a nice experience. The method seems very interesting. Some of the feedback which follows has been translated into tickets on Redmine. Other points seem to collide a little bit with Tails' policy, for example on *not* recommending any third party e-mail service. I invite you all to discuss the tickets rather then the whole thread. Also, if there is a point not addressed by the tickets, please start a new thread on the mailing list to talk about it otherwise we might get lost, as this whole thing is quite long. The next steps: - a second usability/user observation workshop - a workshop to brainstorm on solutions - starting to implement solutions Right now, we (tchou and NUMA mostly) are trying to fix some new dates for a new usability testing session. There will probably be a second observation workshop at Pas Sage En Seine. At the HackFest we shall redo such a conception workshop, or even start to implement some of the solutions. Cheers. u. == If you're only interested in the tickets, here they are: Tails: - https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/5417 Improve user experience when wiping memory at shutdown - https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/7440 Implement a progress indicator while establishing a connection to Tor - https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/7436 Contact Riseup on how we could help towards publishing a list of recommended email providers - https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/7433 Have Tails OpenPGP Applet in the menu - https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/7449 UX: Add Seahorse to application menu - https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/7448 UX: Check whether we might be on a captive portal if Tor fails to connect MAT: - https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/7444 Be able to add multiple files more easily - https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/7442 Make it easier to see the current metadata in MAT - https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/7445 Icon usage in MAT - https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/7446 UX: make preferences clearer == There were 15 people subscribed to the workshop. Only 4 of them came plus one person who was not subscribed. We do not really know what caused this but would like to find out. === How the workshop was organized. We prepared 4 missions. There should have been 3 groups of people who would carry out one mission. (As there were only 5 people, we carried out only 3 missions.) Every group member would carry out his or her mission individually. People receive the mission in an envelope, together with 3 red cards. After doing the mission, everybody writes down what they do exactly to accomplish the mission. During the mission, if the person is blocked by some problem, they can lift a red card and ask for help. However, they are encouraged to look for the solution themselves by every means possible. But if that takes too long, they could use the card. The 3 people of NUMA sat next to a person in particular to observe them. During the second phase, everybody would reconstitute their mission through putting post-its for each step on a white board. They would explain publicly where they blocked, and what worked and what not. If they blocked somewhere, they would put a cross on the post it. If they used a red card, they would paste the red card to the white board too. === This is the feedback from the NUMA UX experts (i am merely copy-pasting this): Usability Test: Debriefing and Recommendations All missions included booting on Tails, selecting keyboard and language and activating persistence and/or root password if the mission seemed to require it. Mission A Create a new encrypted document of your choice (photo, pdf, etc..) and save it to Tails, using persistence. User profile: Male, Developer, Windows user, Uses Tails on a virtual machine. Had persistence on his key, mission took him 3 minutes without problems. 2nd User profile: Male, crypto guy. Did not have persistence. Needed to create persistent volume, but his key was a first copy. So he did it with a key we provided. Set up persistence, was no problem, but he did not read the message saying that he needs to reboot to make the whole thing work. Mission B Find out the number of Tails downloads this month. Pass on this information using GPG via email to x...@xxx.org either using the available public key or the shared secret: "numacestcool" User profile: Male, Developer, Windows user, Uses Tails on a virtual machine. User flow: Launching Tails : He uses Tails on a virtual machine. He launches Tails. He thinks it’s positive that the Admin mode is available only at the launching screen and it can’t be activated inside the system. He gets a message “Warning: virtual machine, your screen can be accessed from windows”. He guesses (but is not sure) that the security is maintained even if he is using a virtual machine. No problem in conn
