I'm not trying to upset anyone but do we really have to stalk every researcher who adds relays? Honestly, does there need to be a report on x-number of relays were added, constituting a spike this month to date? I mean this purely out of respect for tor-related research worldwide. Engaging in tor related research means they have the ability and mentor to identify the reason they're not getting x-flag is because of reasons ___, ___, and most likely ___. They know there's resources available to pose questions if their mentor cannot provide one. Does every tor researcher have to disclose their research before it's time? It's a little bit rude to assume they don't understand the spec.
What if their research involves studying the traffic at an exit. What if their research involves studying exploits? Yes, I know it's questionable. This is science and engineering though. As a graduate it wouldn't be fair to assume there wouldn't be a disclosure of results. Have they done something wrong that they need feedback. Did they ask for it (yet)? They aren't responsible as a graduate with a mentor? If they're a master's student in Germany they'd have to be hiding under a rock to not know the state of wiretapping by state intelligence. A little patience would be more becoming of a not-for-profit organization that promotes privacy and anonymity. I do research too, ongoing even, should I disclose everything to date too. Honestly. Let them be until they're ready. --leeroy -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
