Retroshare is a p2p program providing email, chat rooms, file sharing, forums, channels, over fully encrypted tunnels. It can replace most things you need to do online. Find it at retroshare.net/ or through your distributions package manager. Retroshare has gotten many new features recently.
Retroshare supports full hidden service mode. When you get to the profile creation popup don't use the default. Instead click the advanced button and then configure your tor hidden service. This adds another layer of encryption and provides anonymity. We have a chatroom on retroshare right now. Come try it out!
Nigger, /hypno/'s RetroShare threads were so successful that all the slightly intelligent anons migrated their filesharing to it and now the board is left with retarded third-world shitters complaining that torrents are too hard and how they can't find any new files on their crappy clearnet file hosts. If IPFS over Tor or I2P becomes a better option in the future, I'll likely promote that instead.

Whats your node key user.
Isaac Flores
I got rid of my node in a distro switch and haven't bothered to set up RS since then. My hypnosis collection is gone too since I'm trying to fix my life and fap less.
Kevin Butler
Is this thing like napster, but with asymmetric cryptography? Can I search for content within the client? How's the speeds over Tor and i2p?

user that does not appear to have the hidden service address. We won't be able to connect to you.
Sebastian Powell
I would agree, I tried to add them and I got no connection
I goofed out and posted the cert that I had in my clipboard from BEFORE setting up the hidden service properly, sorry about that. My fault. I had in fact tested it with a test identity routed through Tor and should work fine now.

That's how it works you fucking retard. Are they working on proper hidden node support at least?
Jacob Green
retroshare has proper tor support unlike tox
Parker Taylor
What are you talking about? Tox supports Tor connections.
Jayden Roberts
not directly it all goes through a small set of special nodes leaking who is talking to who, your active contact list, when things happen, etc.
Christopher Ross
Any more details about this big guy?
Joseph Flores
I'd be up for this if I could avoid sharing my IP address. How well does it work through a VPN? I suppose I would have to have a dedicated one since the VPN IP address would be the node address everybody sees?
Nathaniel Bennett
Tox supports socks proxies. It doesn't have proper hidden node support.
Just set up a hidden node. RetroShare supports both Tor and i2p. (Even if you don't set it up as hidden by default, you can configure it to use Tor and i2p as well for nodes that use them by default.)
Jeremiah Rodriguez
I've heard using Tor and i2P will get you put on an alphabet watch list though. Normies use VPNs so nobody really cares about them.
Anthony Martin
Pretty much everything puts you on the watch list. Did you know that the simple act of using a search engine to search for "Linux" gets you onto that watch list? The list of forbidden words are so wide that it will cover a significant portion of all people.
Caleb Russell
Yes but I'm sure the master list has subsets of severity, and I'm pretty sure using Tor or i2P puts you on a more closely watched list than searching for Linux. Also, how could they know what you search for nowadays when everything is https?
Easton Anderson
VPNs will put you on a watchlist as well, but Tor and i2p are better at retaining anonymity. Though to be fair, a node behind a VPN will give you better file transfer speeds among other non-hidden nodes. (You still need Tor or i2p running in the background to connect to a lot of the hidden nodes in this thread.) Also, >>>/reddit/
Eli Collins
I simply assume that they have their ways. Maybe they have an agreement with Google (any search engine) to report Google data at their request. Maybe they install backdoors at any point of the communication network. Maybe they install backdoors onto your personal machine.
James Adams
I just realized I can do Tor through a VPN, so that only VPN provider sees I'm using it.
John Walker
Enjoy your "secure" >500ms latency.
Adrian Wright
Meh, the tor only version crashed as soon as I tried connecting.
Hudson Sanders
Passive traffic fingerprinting. You load a big continuous from Youtube, it is an obscure meme video, you load a small portion, it is profile settings page, the. Third-party resources. Either as a third-party observer themselves (facebook knows you visited a nazi site with facebook like buttons), or second party through observing what third party fonts, scripts and resources you pull from CDNs, as different pages on the web contain different third-party resources. If a website is public-facing, anyone can observe how traffic is getting loaded from it and then use this pattern to sniff on other people's traffic. Therefore, https is not well-suited for hiding your traffic from state-backed adversary, unless it's a unique private page like logon profile, but to ensure the traffic comes un-tampered from the server, and even then it fails miserably because third-party certificate authorities can issue a legit-lookin mitm certificate for your local bolis. This is why linux package repositories don't use https, because packages are already signed by maintainers and there is no sense in encrypting traffic. eff.org/deeplinks/2015/09/symantec-issues-rogue-ev-certificate-googlecom cnet.com/news/microsoft-warns-of-hijacked-certificates/
Easton Reed
Would it work on a local network/meshnet?
Jayden Perez
I shiggy diggy.
Austin Rivera
Yes, perfectly. It has multiple ways to discover and connect to peers.
Samuel Morales
GNUNet doesn't work out of the box, and has many less features tbh
Evan Collins
I had this problem also, then I realized I setup the hidden service directory with wrong owner. Changed it to the user that is running retroshare and then it worked OK when I tried the appimage
Jason Perry
Question: what do I need to do, precisely, to set up Tor? Is the default 127.0.0.1:9050 fine, and where else might I need to write that?
Blake Price
ricochet does it better and only through tor
anyone running Tor outside a VM which is first running a VPN and then another separate VPN on the host is a fag anyway
Note that I haven't set up a hidden service yet, so don't add me if you just want to see what I'm sharing. I have a NAT server I'm building that I will share in the future.
Source for this claim? When was it ever revealed that simply searching for "Linux" adds you to a watch list? That honestly sounds too absurd, and that watch-list too useless, unless their target for the watch-list is above 50-iq mostly-males who don't use the internet only for instagram/snapchat/tinder/youtube/twitch/whatever_else_is_trendy.
Xavier Nguyen
I just created a new node on my old desktop and shared a portion of the videos + old BYTE magazine pdfs. About half a TB. Will probably take a day or two to hash. My NAS will take a while before it becomes a node because I haven't yet transferred my files from 3 different computers spanning 10+ yrs of shit on multiple HDDs. This is still a good chunk of stuff I have. Probably an 8th of sharable stuff in terms of space. I should share my textbooks too.
Justin Allen
Actually, probably a 1/16th since I haven't included much in terms of TV shows due to laziness in organizing things.
It could very well be just a rumor since I don't actually work at any government agency and have never been approached by any agent specifically because of my search history. Apparently, these are keywords used to conduct mass surveillance.
Good to know the guys defending our country and taking up all those resources are so updated and into the loop of the world's present problems. The world has gotten pretty dangerous of late, it looks like next year, 1994, will be a real blast.
