Also Tor circuits are also just TLS[1]

- nickpsecurity 8y agoThanks for telling me about meek. I'll warn this might not block visibility at least for domestic TLA's. If they record metadata, they can just work backwards from exit nodes or known relays to whoever is connecting to them. That would map out most likely users of Tor. Then, they can apply whatever passive or active attacks they have. Most probably aren't running OpenBSD, HardenedBSD, QubesOS, etc. ;) Still good for the many, many, other threats out there.
