Just dropped an email[1] to the tor-relays@ mailing list to figure out which #Tor relay operators are attending the upcoming #WHY2025 hacker camp in the Netherlands.

If you're attending and interested in meeting fellow Tor enthusiasts, please check this thread or here for announcements of the time and date for a meetup 🥳

Help people in censored countries bypass censorship by installing the Snowflake addon from @torproject ❄️

Whether you are running #Firefox, #Chrome, or one of the many other browser flavours (#Waterfox, #Edge, #Brave, #Vivaldi, etc.); once you install Snowflake, there's nothing else you need to do.

Then people can use your internet connection as a launchpad to the #Tor network. Clever stuff.

What would be the perfect desktop RSS application?

I've recently gotten back into one of my projects where I'm trying to build an #RSS reader with Rust & Iced
Things are coming together nicely since that last post...

  • Items are now properly stored in a DB and actually retrieved for display
  • I've written a module that parses description/content areas to build the layout (this was HARD!)
  • It seems to work well with many feeds I'm testing out.

I really just need to get to the grind of completing it and adding the necessary features. But I'd love feedback from fellow open web enjoyers.

If you have any thoughts on must-have features I'd love to hear them.
My current dream list is:

  • First-class #Tor & #I2P support with other options configurable (**I would really like suggestions on how to handle this well)
  • Full text search (to be useful as a personal search engine)
  • Import from FreshRSS (for entirely selfish reasons)
  • Discovery features: the plan is to setup a way to discover feeds that your feeds link to.

worth a gander:

The Tor Project Just Gaslit Their Entire User Base

> "Developer statements from October 2024 and April 2025 prove they intentionally removed OS spoofing, leaving users' real operating systems exposed in HTTP headers and server logs. This change particularly impacts security-conscious users who disable JavaScript, as HTTP headers were their last line of defense against identification."

somebody should make a better ICE tracker, for fun.

maybe with ZKP.

maybe over Tor.

maybe P2P.

importantly:

1. it should have a good site that gets the point across
2. it should be easy to use and understand
3. it should do the primary function

&

4. it should fix what you're complaining about the ICE block app (without breaking what the ICE block app already does)

good documentation, PR & UX outwin "more sound designs" every time.

RFC 9799: ACME Extensions for ".onion" Domain Names

Le protocole #ACME permet d'automatiser le processus de création et de renouvellement de #certificats utilisables, par exemple, pour TLS. L'extension normalisée dans ce nouveau #RFC permet d'obtenir des certificats pour un service utilisant le .onion de #Tor. Si vous voulez passer à la télévision en disant « j'ai obtenu un certificat pour le Dark Web », ce RFC est la bonne lecture.

There is a growing number of people who no longer feel safe in their own home or country. Whatever the reason, many people might not feel safe to browse certain topics online 🌐

If you're in this situation, the Tails live operating system from @torproject can help. Tails protects against censorship and surveillance, and it lets you use a computer without leaving any trace of your browsing history afterward.
