Hi Worrier,
https://riseup.net/ certainly looks interesting. Thanks very much for
the suggestion. I will follow-up.
I think this problem is actually a potentially tough problem.
Pointers to academic research would be great too.
I am hoping the post will generate some more discussion. I am not
sure that encrypting disks and an anonymous IP are enough. Running a
private mail server in conjunction with the web server helps, but
there should be a cookbook solution. Or at least a discussion of the
challenges.
Really appreciate the feedback.
Engsafety.
