Some of the #BornHack participants brought a warmed up Tor relay and configured it as an exit node on our network! Welcome to the tent floor exit node! https://metrics.torproject.org/rs.html#details/6CDE3363F9F9AD5A6EA484DEFB58217CC9685E31
The program for #BornHack 2020 is slowly coming together at https://bornhack.dk/bornhack-2020/program/events/ - we are still looking for talks, workshops, and music acts! Our CfP with information on how to submit is available at https://bornhack.dk/bornhack-2020/program/call-for-participation/

NEW: Meet the Tor Community portal! https://blog.torproject.org/community-portal
Tor's Community portal is home to info and resources for you, the people who make Tor possible.
What used to be buried, scattered across our website, and outdated is now organized, refreshed, and easy to use.

Hello fediverse,
this is an attempt to create a presence of #Tails (The Amnesic Incognito Live System) within the your beloved federated network.
#introduction
read more about it in this post:

(Tails is a live operating system that aims at preserving your privacy and anonymity.)
😍 The 9.5a11 alpha version of @torproject's browser ships with support for announcing your Onion site from your regular website via the "Onion-Location" HTTP header. For Nginx users: `add_header Onion-Location http://x.onion$request_uri;` and you're done.
Wrote an article on solving my favorite number logic puzzle using a mixture of #Python and Microsoft Research's Z3: https://ahf.me/articles/2020/05/01/solving-binary-puzzles-using-python-and-z3/
Finally got around to get rid of our proprietary network equipment at home and replaced it all with a single machine running Debian! Next step is to get WireGuard working.
