Hi,
I was wondering if we shouldn't use the infrastructure of the Tor
onion sites. The Tor network provides a .onion TLD that is managed in
a decentralized way. Anyone can create a .onion domain that is
accessible everywhere.
The only thing is that I think Tor has some master servers for
bootstra

I certainly think it is important for the freedombox to support TOR. In
particular, a freedombox should be able to act as a TOR relay or
potentially even a TOR exit node.
However, I think even if you talk to the TOR project they'll agree that
you should not use TOR by default, nor enable being a T

I don't think it's feasible to use it for everything, for the reasons
other people have mentioned. But on my FreedomBox I run a Tor node
fulltime and use it for

The primary problem I see with eSATA ports is that they aren't USB

What is our target platform? We might target anything
that can run Linux, or some subset with required
capabilities, or even one or more specific devices.
Our main target is plug computers and the ideal
target something like Dreamplug:

do with the W3C Geolocation spec, which allows individual websites to ask
for your location through JavaScript, and not to do with "phoning home" to
Google any information about you.
