Why not make exit nodes only able to use secure protocols?
Am I missing something or could thing whole problem be put to rest, at the same time the rest of the net is transitioning to https only.
- ludjer 10y agowont change the fact that the originating IP is still the exit node. If you use tor and spam some https website the source IP will still be the exit nodes IP. Secure protocols cant hide the source IP(which is way more complicated, requires compromised router for a man in the middle attack, if TCP)
- maerF0x0 10y agowhat if TOR only served .onion sites?
- WhitneyLand 10y agoOk I see, your saying it's not just spying on clear text, they just wait for subversive propaganda to appear the force the site where it's posted to cough up the ip address. Maybe it would help if site took pains to not keep logs, but sometimes even that is difficult.
