Whats that zeronet shilling about?
So it's P2P, which means that every user knows the connected IPs of other users that are currently using the site?

Zeronet isn't TOR. It is where website data is stored on every computer that visits the site, and then the vistor also becomes a hoster of that site. It is torrent for web hosting. If you accidentally see CP on Zeronet you will be hosting CP unless you delete it. The tools allow you to delete any site, any time you like, from your computer.

It is focused on distributing, and therefore making impossible to remove, websites. It isn't focused on user privacy.

Rumour says you can also add TOR to it. Rumour also says this doesn't hide your IP. I don't know what the truth is here.

If you want to view zeronet on a smaller device whilst having your desktop computer do the hard work you can do:

./zeronet.py --ui_ip <desktop_LAN_IP>

Then you point your smaller device web browser to:

http://<desktop_LAN_IP>:43110/

and for 08chan:

http://<desktop_LAN_IP>:43110/1DdPHedr5Tz55EtQWxqvsbEXPdc4uCVi9D

If you wish <desktop_LAN_IP> can be set to 0.0.0.0 which will just make any IP address on the desktop work.

Zeronet claims you can hide your IP by enabling tor.
If so it is capable of both user privacy and web hosting resilience.

I think the idea here is.. the primary goal of zeronet was website resilience. Therefore the statement:

>but privacy (the possibility to find out who is the owner of the comment/site) will increase as the network and the sites gains more peers.

Means when 1 million people are hosting your website the traffic has 1/1,000,000th of a chance of coming from the content creator making it hard for the creator to be found (and deplatformed). It's security by obscurity for the website owner or post owner. Its poor security.

When the website hosters add in tor the IP is masked and if it work as stated is as good as tor. If tor is compromised (was made by the US Navy) then it is not secure. If tor isn't compromised, I don't see any evidence that Zeronet can't be secure for both users and website owners.

Which means if you turn on tor it is as good as the internet can be, whatever that means.

zeronet-tor.png
I looked into it now, so far i know this:
>Anonymity: Full Tor network support with .onion hidden services instead of IPv4 addresses
On windows it ships with tor and it will use tor, the P2P works by tor hidden services, so your real IP isn't visible for other zeronet users.
BUT
Per default, this just applies for Tor network peers, if another user who's on a site where you are doesn't use Tor, he will be connected to you through your real IP and he knows it.
So set that on Always in the zeronet configuration!

Another issue is that a site can link, host or embed stuff that's on the clearnet, which will then not use zeronet and therefore also not go through tor.
This site here uses that: http://127.0.0.1:43110/1Ey8WR7e3quTdPTMZZKDdqw2U6JG3zvkHe

So to fix that, use Tor Browser, set the Tor Browser proxy settings to
>Not use proxy for: 127.0.0.1
Then start zeronet with:
--tor_controller 127.0.0.1:9151 --tor_proxy 127.0.0.1:9150
(this makes zeronet use the tor instance that the Tor Browser is launching)
And browse zeronet with the tor browser.

btw. on linux zeronet does not ship with tor, so don't run it there with the default settings. You either have to setup tor yourself... or use the Tor Browser like said above.

This right here is the truth. It tor compromised? I really don't know, but assuming the protocol is solid, someone with deep pockets could control a decent number of entry/exit nodes. That said, people who have been busted for crimes commited over tor (silk road, etc) have also been sloppy with their opsec. Or they have been made to appear to be sloppy with opsec.

So, looking at it that way, unless you are super strict about your opsec, you are going to fuck up any way. Were I to do this, I'd have to run it on a dedicated machine that runs nothing else.

The tor browser support pluggable-transports that can bypass tor traffic filters.
https://2019.www.torproject.org/docs/pluggable-transports.html.en
This is not (yet) supported by zeronet. But if you use Tor Browser and use the Tor instance from it, you can still have pluggable transports.

It's just one more reason why you should use zeronet with tor browser.

It makes no sense to me that the Tor browser can make ZeroNet secure. I see that as being like this:

Tor Browser -> 127.0.0.1:43110 -> ZeroNet acting as normal, no Tor.

Using Tor proxy is different:

Normal Browser -> 127.0.0.1:43110 -> privoxy for example -> tor -> internet.

How can a front end tor browser be a backend internet connector?

You can use this site to test it. It will show your real IP, even if you have zeronet behind Tor.
(if ublock origin doesn't block it ... but ublock can't protect you from some random guy who just hosts a pic and logs IPs on some freehoster and shows it on some zeronet site)

Okay so the tor browser is running a browser and a service and in theory the service runs the backend.

But check this:

>How to use ZeroNet with the Tor browser?
>In Tor mode it is recommended to use ZeroNet from within the Tor Browser:
>Start the Tor Browser
>Go to address about:preferences#advanced
>Click Settings...
>Enter 127.0.0.1 to field No proxy for

To me that reads that 127.0.0.1 is excluded from proxying, including tor proxying.

well, on zeronet everyone can post everything without anyone able to remove it and if you access it, you share it with P2P and therefor distribute it to.

The 08ch has now a >/cp/ board.
Click on it -> you now host cp -> someone logs it and reports you to authorities -> the authorities ask your ISP who had that IP at thist time -> rot in jail

We use Tor to not suddenly get into huge problems for getting baited into some honeypot or because some incredible faggot who should die posts cp.

You would set the Normal Browser to go through (privoxy->)tor. You would except 127.0.0.1. And then somewhere in zeronet.py you would have that go through tor also. In ZN and out would both go through tor.

Exactly, that's what i said here:
>>235516

So the Tor Browser uses Tor for everything thats on the clearnet or an onion link.
The Tor Browser connects directly to zeronet for every zeronet site, and zeronet then runs that through the tor instance of the tor browser.

Zeronet:
Tor Browser -> zeronet -> Tor Browsers own Tor Instance -> other peers
Everything else:
Tor Browser -> Tor Browsers own Tor instance -> hidden service or clearnet site

Which is exactly the same as using Tor Browser. It's the very same setup.
Tor Browser is just an ordinary firefox shipped with some plugins and a tor instance. You just manually copied the Tor Browser setup now.

zeronet is not a browser. When you enter an URL in your browser that's not zeronet, you will get to that website without zeronet. If there is an image embedded from an URL that's not zeronet, the browser will get it without zeronet.

It's not an issue that you can fix, it's working as expected.
If you want to see all non-zeronet traffic with tor... you will have to setup your browser to use tor or use Tor Browser in the first place.

Zeronet is pretty much a one-click install.

Then change one setting in TorBrowser and two settings in zeronet.

It's easy.
The only questionable thing is that those two settings aren't set to always use Tor per default. But >>235522 is a good explaination why they did choose not to.

No need, it is just plain logic considering the almost inexhaustible means the adversary has, such us to plant a lot of nodes to catch as much traffic as possible for analysis.
The incredible speed that most fags have, for example to watch videos on TOR, wasn't available years ago, meaning that some relays have been planted and oiled to increase it and to be more friendly to potential users. It is my understanding that if every user is a TOR relay, then I would be downloading as much as uploading, however and incredibly that is not the case, 98% of my traffic is downloading, meaning that there are plenty of idle relays with incredible capacity to carry that traffic, not something that the average Joe will do.

I've noticed something that mitigates the CP attack vector to a large degree. Next to the post number on 08chan is a: [M]
Clicking this mutes that poster and deletes the content of the posts from your version of the site stored on your PC.

So basically you are running your copy of 08chan. You are your own "board owner" and you delete uploaded CP as part of your normal responsibilities.
Parts of the board you never look at never end up on your PC and so you have no concerns abot what happens elsewhere.

No one will successfully charge you for deleting unrequested CP (unless they lie, and if the lie you were already screwed anyway.)

Another quality of the site is that you do automatically host the image thumbnails but not the expanded image. It is possible for a non-expanded image to no longer exist because the original poster is not online and no one who is online has the expanded image stored.

However, the FYI: The millchan.db file is an SQLite database which does store non-image text of posts of All boards, even those you mute and those you've never clicked. Investigate for yourselves. Might be platform specific.

Not at all. But to make a realistic assessment of the pros and cons is a must.
Granted, for any the adversary, the Tor network is a headache, but not quite if that adversary owns the infrastructure routing the traffic.
The conclusion might be that using clearnet or not, no one is 100% safe. So, make your shitposting smart and within the bounds of plausible deniability when needed. Use your White IQ to find out where those bounds are.

I noticed it changed within the last few hours. Could have happened up to half a day ago. Looks like an upgrade of millchan software. Round buttons, glowy text, drop boxes to mute boards. Looks like they are still bashing bugs.

Well, it's nice to have an intuitive and comfy looking exterior, but I think what makes the chans great is the sort of basic and old-timey structure they work by. It's basically just a bulletin board without mandatory usernames or persistent identities. I like that about the chans because it's not "accessible" to normies who would otherwise not understand the sites or their cultures anyway.

Plus minimalism is pretty absurd sometimes. Vid related.

I wanna go back to the days when minimalism was an artistic decision in media like cartoons and games instead of an overwhelming wave in big tech.

Yes. Why are you posting about non-internet-culture words like "zealous" and "racism" when justifying your spergery over mild differences in language? I didn't get the word normie from leddit. In fact, I don't even have a leddit account at all. I used one exclusively for a tech support sub and then immediately deleted my account the moment my problem was fixed. I got the word, ironically, from 4chan in 2015. So, ha.

So does that mean you would like to give up algebra because it was made by Muslims and we're all anti-Sharia? Because that's the reasoning I'm getting here.

How did you even arrive to that? I'm just going after because you're using the politically correct term for a word that we already have and have never had a problem using, and using another word that was only derived because fags don't know anything about the history of the internet prior to Kikebook and Twatter.

Through him the Arabic numerals and algebra were introduced to Christian students, and among other philosophers at his court was Michael Scott, who translated portions of Aristotle and the commentaries thereon of the great Arab philosopher Averroes (of Cordoba).

Is....is this actually an attempt at debunking the claim, or are you just really inept at reading?

First, the number "0" came from India. Second, are you seriously trying to tell me that, prior to the 7th century, no society on Earth had ever created a system of trade and commerce, architecture and craftsmanship, or even made any studies into scientific advancement?

I'm just pointing out that you sent me that .pdf as a smug QED against the notion that the Muslims created algebra, because you have a vendetta against using a word that the undesirables use for the sole reason that those undesirables use it.

Side note: I didn't claim no society on Earth ever had trade, commerce, architecture, OR craftsmanship. All I said was that Muslims created algebra. Far as I understand it, that is the case. Doesn't make them the first or only people to understand math. But the file YOU SENT apparently believes that Muslims not only created algebra, but they invented the 0 in the form it's used in math today. And you sent that file, accompanied with incredulity at my own much less radical claim.

My point in bringing up algebra was that a group of people we don't like happen to have created it, which is the exact reason you hate the word normie. Were we not on a /pol/ board already sympathetic to the national socialists, I'd stick to using lung cancer research and the forty hour workweek as examples of this mindset being retarded.

Speaking of retarded, this entire argument is a nothingburger of the highest order. This isn't like a series of political power words used against us. This isn't like some kind of word with such a hugely divergent meaning that it muddies discussion relating to it massively. No, normalfag and normie are the same exact word. The only difference is that the word normie is more popular outside imageboards, because you usually have to dance around the word faggot in daily conversation anywhere else.

Before you even start with the whinging and moaning again, that's what we call actual discourse. We try to meet in the middle ground, put a little honey on the medicine as we administer it to the lemmings. Not everyone can play Johnny Rebel music around coworkers or friends and complain about kikes, much less in fucking California, without getting in trouble.

>All I said was that Muslims created algebra.
Yeah, as in the word "algebra", giving them credit for mathematics because of that reason is the equivalent of saying that the Muslims created sugar because the English word is derived from the Arabic word "sukkar". Also, the source I provided also said, a few paragraphs earlier:
>In Persia this fresh excited Arabic mind came into contact not only with Manichaean, Zoroastrian and Christian doctrine, but with the scientific Greek literature, preserved not only in Greek but in Syrian translations. It found Greek learning in Egypt also. Everywhere, and particularly in Spain, it discovered an active Jewish tradition of speculation and discussion. In Central Asia it met Buddhism and the material achievements of Chinese civilization. It learnt the manufacture of paper-which made printed books possible-from the Chinese. And finally it came into touch with Indian mathematics and philosophy.
So, if you actually read it, the ONLY thing the mudslimes actually did was just "disperse the knowledge" (That already existed, **and was "lost" due to the burning of Alexandria**) and gave it the modern name.
>My point in bringing up algebra was that a group of people we don't like happen to have created it, which is the exact reason you hate the word normie.
Except the word "normalfag" already existed, and was perfectly acceptable termage online until sites started becoming more PC.
>Were we not on a /pol/ board already sympathetic to the national socialists
GET OUT since it's pretty clear that you don't actually understand how it is that /pol/ thinks. You might as well consider /pol/ a Muslim board, by your logic, since they do share some "sympathies" with the sandnigger religion and it's beliefs.
>This isn't like a series of political power words used against us. This isn't like some kind of word with such a hugely divergent meaning that it muddies discussion relating to it massively. No, normalfag and normie are the same exact word. The only difference is that the word normie is more popular outside imageboards, because you usually have to dance around the word faggot in daily conversation anywhere else.
So, there is nothing political about using the word "normalfag", but you refuse to use the word normalfag due to political reasons, so you have to use the politically correct version of the word (Even in a place where you don't have to dance around political correctness)? Please explain to me the logic behind this; why you're defending it; and how it is that "this isn't effecting my thinking" when you're using a word that NO ONE uses on imageboards unless their a newfag, a shill, or a plant?
>We try to meet in the middle ground, put a little honey on the medicine as we administer it to the lemmings
Not here we don't. If you come to this place, you better damn well expect to act and speak a certain way. Lowering those standards to make ourselves more "marketable" does nothing except destroy a community. The basic fact that the news media is still reeling about a site that is offline should tell you that /pol/ already had more than enough influence acting they way they were: https://archive.fo/MCWao

You're putting words in my mouth here. I'm talking about the ideas, not the site/s. I know that the SITE doesn't appeal. That's why I explicitly mentioned that the sites' old fashioned layout and anonymity were a big part of what made them good in the original post that sparked this shit flinging contest. Not like you read it. You just wanted someone to bitch at about normalfags. I'm talking about the spread of the ideas, not the sites themselves. I didn't REFUSE to use the word, I just used the word normie once, prompting this entire stupid argument. You're the only one who refuses to do things.

I agree with the death of imageboard culture and the eternal september. I agree that normalfags should fucking hang themselves instead of infesting the site. WE AGREE, YOU OBTUSE SHITHEAD.

No, I actually get tired of people bitching about normalfags because human nature hasn't changed one damn bit in the past 8000+ years that we have on record, but Anons still complain about normalfags and their behavior (**Their cancerous hoard mindset; how it is that they don't care about issues snowballing out of control when there's evidence of it happening EVERY SINGLE TIME; and seriously expecting majority of people to actually do something when their future, their family's future, and their descendants future hang in the balance**) like it's something new.

THIS IS IMPORTANT IN REGARDS TO USING 08!
Make sure that you're loading the site primarily on Tor. While you will be able to "use" the site (To varying degrees of success) with other browsers, Acid and the fags updating site's code are making it a priority that 08 is compatible with Tor first and foremost.

Thanks germanon. Yeah, Tor was originally created by navy techies, and their exit nodes are either from the military or those who helped prop the network up independently. But since it's such an expensive and technical endeavor, very few of those nodes are privately owned. In other words, the navy still knows what you're doing to some extent, when using Tor. I don't know about I2P's level of compromise, but I do know that Tor's pretty much another clearnet at this point.

Until you provide a source to that image, it's bullshit. The only thing that's confirmed is that the U.S. Army is seeking control of the internet (Like every other country in the world).

Is Tor more or less secure than any other browser on the market? If more, wouldn't it be better to use Tor for my browser needs than if I just used any other browser? **Also, if Tor really is compromised (Beyond the just fags developing it being a bunch of baizuo), why hasn't anyone forked it? I thought the entire point of FOSS was to prevent this from happening.**

While you're not wrong about usage of language (well, I mean, your images aren't wrong), "normie" isn't "reddit" you fucking cancerfag. It comes from /r9k/, and is grouped with "roasties" and "tendies", and all were as a result of the "literal manchild" jokes (though maybe not roastie necessarily, it was popularized then).
Reddit adopted it because the jokes had gotten popular enough to enter their sphere (the usage of Pepe despite him being normalfag'd did not help), and it's been long enough now where either FUCKING MONGOLOIDS WITH THE MEMORY SPAN OF GOLDFISH AND/OR COMPLETE FUCKING NEWFAGS LIKE YOU THINK IT ORIGINATED FROM PLEBBIT.

Then you should be aware that leaks CAN be faked. It happens more than often enough in relation gaming, so why would it be that much of a stretch to fake a leak of an "official government document". However, with that being said, it does go to show that our options are very limited. Supposing that Tor and VPNs are compromised, where are people suppose to go next? Those two options are the "last line of defense" for the internet meaning that once/if they lose ground, then it's all over because no one is offering any alternatives to replace/complement them is anything does happen. **Although, none of this should be happening in the first place because a lot of the dataming and surveillance that these companies and the government are forcing down everyone's throats is illegal and unconstitutional in the first place. And, the only reason why they get away with it is because the public doesn't know, nor care, about their rights.**

>>239450
That's understandable because I'm in the same boat. I should be practicing better OPSEC myself, but, after a certain point, you just tend don't care about it because it becomes such a hassle.

"Normie" has been around much longer than that. Some Anons were finding a Family Guy episode from way back in 2004/2005 that used the word. Leddit also started up back in 2005. /r9k/ didn't exist until 2008.

Regardless of the origins of the word, people who say "normie" nowadays are usually normalfaggots who are too PC to say the "fag" in "normalfag". With every vapid redditor and facebook-user on the planet calling everything they don't like "normie", people who aren't faggots will gravitate toward "normalfag" to disassociate with the undesirables.
