I'm posting this here because Thomas White runs several Tor relays and other useful privacy-related things. Code: I am pasting the following PGP signed message so a wide and verifiable copy of it is available from several sources, so if the time must come for it to be verified then it can be done. At this moment I can't divulge what this is about other than Hidden Services. Please don't ask me to expand further because I cannot at this time - I am just going on the record with this now whilst I am at liberty to do so unrestrained. And no, this isn't a "Tor is broken" doomsday sort of message, so don't go into overdrive on conspiracy theories please. Tor itself is fine. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Please keep a copy of the following checksums for future use. I am not at privilege at this moment to divulge anything further about what these checksums may or may not verify other than to state they are a proof of foreknowledge about events which are about to unfold. I hopefully will never need to release these, but if I must it is crucial the authenticity can be verified by as many people as possible. The context of these and who it concerns at Tor hidden services. ebbf8fe315b77419c96d67accc41d5501cb22aa9 On Twitter: https://twitter.com/CthulhuSec/status/562549685802774528 ba993b4a132df12537aab9fde4b297197b92a45a On Twitter: https://twitter.com/CthulhuSec/status/562549758242611200 At this moment (3rd Feb 2015) I am under no compulsion to write this message and I have not been served any gag orders in relation to the exact text above. Should for any reason I become unable to disclose the above information myself, another person will step forward to do so. Thus gagging orders aimed at myself, my legal team, my known associates or any other form of restraint against me will not prevent the release of this information. Should my enemies test my resolve on this matter - you will fail. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2 iQIcBAEBAgAGBQJU0KBOAAoJEFwqjFoMykmDwkkP+weowT1KypIRrj1GtkmU/3ii yVZiRBiCL5DUVbNPEMgmKvVCNwR8j0wfQEswJ9AofyuQscHt7D1HNX9AOHYfE0DY qfga61a5ry6FzmIQu4iAOmJBMYXPGXhpExsaxhoLfP5rd2voF2XSjc8bOz4eaKNL zTooujpdXMQWCTtUUExlGxcEA1afdbGLnWgMiL2XUpR+2XEzuBLkPU+uOo0PCC/U 8/HlKQOSYmP0abAuVxcXvqsm5uwFG+DbH9GR1TAgJ8uQ4JNiKIBko9ggwgDjMYvL XlUGMMLVggD09yb/UOSMxiKLwMr+i0zrajvCY+Nd3K6K7+kE0gS6tGoKKB9y6jKf G3qRlwie4pcmrPn6/F56ilKXixxbq2KnLb0iMLMTwwsm2apuQ30rD+tGDeFrKQMy rNZH+YlfEGY0dOpYvsU8e5/oOANmSzB2em3TOIjp3RyeODZaCuT6Ohn/N4H2OnX7 Xh3Yb1p4+QVVx4V1EMacsjDczHx05iItar4B6fIQZKmCkL+jbTJFoYWZ64DzGq8+ uYbqg+AqKPxtDx3+LxSGH3sVYgJ+zYYCDTUp2cFdBsU+/N2EWK8hqLwFpmmYd902 7yNcHsO6Xo37O0drdJC1tMj0oykAf6wMSQlxo14mZIzeDvQHxRXA2ZoZY9FzZbDj l8IXhbphnvUea+gf4kQi =uaho -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- https://lists.torproject.org/pipermail/tor-talk/2015-February/036733.html
There's no conspiracy needed, really. He's faced some scrutiny He's probably being pressured. It's a cost of working non-anonymously
I am not concerned and we will appreciate the authenticity of the info when the timing is right to release it. I don't have the STONES to work non-anonymously!
