Governments will just get other governments to let them tap their fiber.
- alt227 3y agoRight, like China and Russia are going to let USA tap their fibre?
- throwaway48476 3y agoConveniently, tor nodes are blocked by the Chinese and Russian governments.
- alt227 3y agoYour post was 'Governments will just get other governments to let them tap their fiber.' You have, conveniently, moved your point back to tor when I pointed out the folly of your statement.
- throwaway48476 3y agoThe discussion is about tor. If you look at the countries where tor nodes are hosted fiber tapping is a relevant attack vector.
- alt227 3y agoAnd I was pointing out that governments need to be on particularly friendly terms to achieve this, which doesnt make it a universal attack vector. Here, have an example: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/japan/10409098/Japan-turned-down-NSA-request-to-tap-into-fibre-optic-data-cables.html https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/japan/104090...
