- unicornporn 11y agoHe said "normal people". Virtual machines are not something the general population is fluent with. Perhaps you can't expect "normal people" to be the target group for everything though. First class security often comes at a price, in some cases this is fine.
- Canada 11y agoIf I wanted to talk securely to any of you guys I could just setup a hidden SSH server on Tor. None of you would have any problem using sftp to give me messages and files or use talk to chat. As long as we used the latest OpenSSH and picked the better algorithms we'd stand a better chance of resisting a skilled attacker than using this project. The problem is we have nothing to say to each other. We all have sensitive conversations with our lawyers, doctors, immediate family, and the like. And those people cannot make use of solutions that require knowledge of how to actually use a computer.
- occult 11y agoThis is such a good point. There's a chicken / egg problem here where you need a critical mass of activity for anything interesting / useful to emerge but the barrier to entry getting to these places is high enough, and the pain / friction involved with spending time there is significant enough, that communities have a difficult time forming. I think LookingGlass is meant to try to overcome some of these problems. That said, strolling down darknet alley sure does feel a lot like wandering around Chernobyl.
