Trump cuts funding to FOSS projects.

they have more sponsors and won't go broke because of this

the enemy is both weak and strong

HTTP works pretty well, if you don't mind various governments spying on the traffic.

As far as Let's Encrypt goes, the easy way to solve that is self-signed SSL certificates and Tofu. Just make it stupid obvious if an SSL certificate changes on a site that you go to. Like, turn your browser into a giant red screen that says that the security of the website has changed and may be broken obvious. Maybe you could have search engines also index SSL certificates so you could see if Google and Bing and DuckDuckGo and whoever else all say that this website has the same SSL certificate that it has had for X amount of time and if the search engines start showing different results you get suspicious

Well, tbh. If its my last time being president, I would also burn everything to show how the country sucks an is irrepairable.

I did not knew that Tor was getting funded by the american state. Thats giving me some spooky vibes.
More exactly by Defense and secret services

Don't confuse TOR with security, you can get exposed to use the Onion without an additional encrytion layer or VPN. TOR cannot encrypt the traffic between an exit relay and the destination server.

the guy is literally a political front for techbros, it's not like he would do something else.

But i2p doesnt have PoW DDOS protection. Trust me, that shit helps a fuckton for limiting ddos. I witnessed firsthand nine onion services that upgraded from not having DDOS protection to having DDOS protection while under attack and the attack completely stopped.

Sure, like any security it operates in layers
Totally disagree that Tor does not address security. The loophole you mention is indeed well known, but again it's an exploit like anything
And like any security thing, you stack a few layers to get the real world security

Wait you guys were getting paid to work on open source?

Those mf build their empires on the back of open source.

The TOR network is certainly pretty secure, but it's always advisible to use it in the Onion not without an additional layer, at least with a good VPN. Anyway I think that the future is in a descentralized web (I2P, Hyphanet, Snowflake, Shadowsocks and similar), the normal Internet is to heavy controlled by big companies and govs.

Make America great again
-
the enemy is both weak and strong
The appropriate sequence of events would be:
Trump starts tariffs > People switch to FOSS > Trump cuts funding to FOSS
This really isn't double-speak and, if anything, clearly shows the hostility of the admin. They are just incompetent, short-sighted, and overall an enemy of the people.

One theory is that Tor was opened to the public by the United States Naval Research Laboratory only to create a crowd of users for their agents to hide in.

.gov is using let's encrypt? That's pathetic.
Theyre more likely paying godaddy thousands a year for each cert on domains that go back decades.

There's the Monero shilling I expect in every comment
