what precautions should/could he take, other than avoiding HN entirely?
- PavlovsCat 13y agoTaking more than the hostname of the link into account; the title maybe.
- stefantalpalaru 13y agoHiding his IP with Tor would be a good start. Using separate accounts for reading unsafe links and commenting safe ones can avoid detection based on writing style analysis. Since Tor exit nodes can be compromised easily and HTTPS is vulnerable to attackers powerful enough to have the private keys of major certificate authorities, the passwords used should not be reused for other services.
