> Why don't we propose a clean solution for this time mess anyway? Is this that big of a deal? If a would be Tor user doesn't know what time it is and/or can't set their clock manually, they've got bigger issues to worry about.
And given 90% of these users use windows, they're set via ntp by default (or rooted via other means) already. Yes, no UDP via Tor. So once said hapless user manages to get their clock set and strapped up, just scrape it off google or some internal consensus once a half interval and be done with it. In fact, since afaik Tor's entire trust is based on what the top level dir auths say, all other nodes besides auths likely have no need to consider time... just sigs. Even auths might not need to either... rather, just publish good timestamps for recordkeeping (exonerator, stats, etc) is all. Last, is using Tails (or any OS for that matter) somehow going to get you more blocked than blocked (or dead than dead) than for already using Tor? Doubt it. _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list [email protected] https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
