Re: Tor



I didn't realize that the GPL was in danger of being declared null and void in the US. Is this a realistic fear or a rant?

Seriously asking the question.

Thanks

Grateful for any information.


Tor is amazingly easy to set up in Debian.  Install it and privoxy
with apt-get.  Then follow steps 2-4 at
http://tor.eff.org/docs/tor-doc-unix.html.en.

This software looks very interesting to me. As you seem to be familiar
with it, how would you say it affects speed? Is there a drastic
reduction? Would I be able to use a p2p file-sharing or bit torrent
programme, or would these simply be too much to handle?

I am a simple computer user whom doesn't like the way the internet is
headed. Hence the questions I posed.


If you are seriously interested you should consider donating some
bandwidth to Tor by setting up server:

Exactly what I've been thinking of doing.
Give Debian development somewhere to run, when Alito casts the deciding vote on making the GPL null and void in the States, and handing the lot to Microsoft and the NSA.

Thanks to all for their comments.
Regards,
