Dear Tor developers,

there is a new development in the area of Tor-friendly web archives:

Two weeks ago, an Onion Site for the Internet Archive was announced:
http://hackerfactor.com/blog/index.php?/archives/750-Freedom-of-Information.html
Some tech people at the Internet Archive were informed well ahead of
this announcement, and they are happy with it. I expect this Onion
Site to remain stable for quite a while. I have not hacked a Firefox
extension before, and I would be glad if somebody else came forward to
modify cfc accordingly.

Cheers,
Christian

It was a proof of concept that I no longer have time to work on.

Because, out of all the similar services that are available, I like
archive.is the most.

[tor-dev] archive.is and archive.fo are using CloudFlare. Is the TorBrowser add-on cfc useless now?

2017-01-18 Thread Christian Pietsch
Hi Yawning,
hi all,

sorry if this is old news, but I just noticed that archive.is not only
redirects me to archive.fo (which I noticed before), but archive.fo
now greets me with a CloudFlare captcha.

Considering that cfc was created in order to evade the CloudFlare
captcha, this is quite a disappointment. Is cfc useless now? Can it be
fixed?

David F suggested using Memento which I think is an interesting idea,
having participated in one of their hackathons. One caveat: Memento
would point to to various archives not all of which might be suitable.

What is the reason why archive.org is not used? I hear they are almost
done setting up an onion service for the Internet Archive.

Cheers,
C:
