I think this part is essential. Ask yourself this: Would you install Tor on a friend or families laptop without explaining to them exactly what it is and how to use it safely? I know I wouldn't. The trouble is, most people will probably ignore the warnings, and some of them will end up having their SSL sessions stripped and their accounts hacked. Some will end up having access to their accounts blocked for logging in from multiple countries in a short period of time, and when they get phoned up by their banks to ask them why this happened, they'll have no idea. I wouldn't feel happy routing somebody elses Internet traffic over Tor without *making sure* they understood the risks. For the general public, I don't think anything short of a face to face discussion can do that. Certainly not a landing page. - -- Mike Cardwell https://grepular.com/ http://cardwellit.com/ OpenPGP Key 35BC AF1D 3AA2 1F84 3DC3 B0CF 70A5 F512 0018 461F XMPP OTR Key 8924 B06A 7917 AAF3 DBB1 BF1B 295C 3C78 3EF1 46B4 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQGGBAEBCgBwBQJQHWEEMBSAAAAAACAAB3ByZWZlcnJlZC1lbWFpbC1lbmNvZGlu Z0BwZ3AuY29tcGdwbWltZTgUgAAAAAAVABpwa2EtYWRkcmVzc0BnbnVwZy5vcmdt aWtlLmNhcmR3ZWxsQGdyZXB1bGFyLmNvbQAKCRCdJiMBwdHnBBh+CACNSW+Ls2dS CErY/tICb2IDewnyGT7sytkXP2cPnK0S14l/nkzVYX4+ka/qBpvi8tzVINIc3uKf s4QLS8/E3BZEwZ4iG0uDUZwnrJS4yVy7Z0E0ozCxiHWuzifTnSWFDV/ap66ILnZc HYQoom4rBtCdD1SDUKxvduaVhaQqV7MFlaRyB8rji9vJbbIuOLNcMS2ytBPOO6IY feexvXOPvfrsYPEvMELYPjCH0VKwMsspybEmctwsPuo+OM+7GHhHQcWecxotLfNB lqgSvhPIJk6ad1UsKtDykuQ5Ngd/5YL3eiR2mhR0+IkRlcyfRFmjma3pFQz1dL2L lLIBuU7Xqr96 =r/0b -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ tor-talk mailing list tor-talk@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
