Could the answer be encrypted hird-party de-centralized mini-services being sprinkled accross various locations through-out the world? Perhaps the "authorities" would be able to crack one such mini-service, but it would never get them all due to how it limits jurisdictional access. I'm just thinking out aloud... Does things like this already exist (outside TOR nodes, of course)?
- shakna 6y agoOnly if it becomes ordinary to use such a service. TOR protected the spies it was made for, only because there was a substantial amount of other, less interesting, traffic. The mere act of straying outside the norm is what makes you vulnerable. Protecting the data itself is secondary to making the data seem uninteresting to begin with.
- LdSGSgvupDV 6y agoThat's quite hard because it is lack of motivation for people to build such mini-services with risk of being sued. It is quite easy to get some illegal stuff when you host a service without review which is almost impossible for individual service provider to do. There is one way which may reduce the risk. Build your whole system in RAM including OS. When totally power off, everything is volatilized. To lower the cost of RAM, one could just put the OS and service in RAM, but let the encrypted data in drive with key in RAM/RAM-disk. The difficulty here is building a OS in RAM. There are some tricks but most of them need a host which may contribute to vulnerability.
