Pol.is <http://pol.is/> then runs dimensionality reduction and clustering, identifying voting blocs across many perspectives. The perspectives are submitted by the crowd, so the entire process is emergent. The result is a real-time experience which identifies voting blocs and shared consensus, and scales to thousands of people. > > This Thursday evening, Internews is hosting a conversation with Colin Megill, the CEO and co-founder of Pol.is <http://pol.is/>, an open source platform that brings artificial intelligence and machine learning to democratic participation and online civic engagement. In 2016, the Government of Taiwan officially adopted Pol.is <http://pol.is/> as a platform for gathering citizen comment, but its use cases extend beyond governance.

We love your amazing Tor pixel artwork!
by isis agora lovecruft 09 Jan '17

09 Jan '17

Hello Bruno! I've come across some of your awesome pixel art around the internet before, [0] but I had no idea that you had made a Tor logo, [1] until I saw that Dell Cameron used it for a recent article in the Daily Dot. [2] THIS IS THE BEST. Seriously, this makes me so excited and proud. So I was thinking it would be cool if there were some way that Tor users and relay operators could get merch, like T-shirts, stickers, and such, with your Tor logo art on it, but, as the artist, you should get compensation for it. I'm just a developer and not really savvy on artwork licensing, merch sites, or payment processing, so I'm not sure how to best make this happen. Perhaps one of my colleagues in CC might know more and be better able to help set this up? Again, thanks so much for the Tor art, and also all your other fan art, it's all REALLY cool. Also, if you made more logos and stuff for us… I might die. Your art is amazing. We have some tickets [3] for ideas for graphic design work and we need some other logo design (e.g. I think we still need a finalised Tor Labs logo?), but—as you can see—this is clearly not our forté.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 Notes for January 5 2017 meeting: Alison 1) Tor Glossary is nearly finished; where should it live until support.torproject.org is ready? 2) support portal work continues 3) next for community team: revisit Rapid Response Program, finish membership docs, continue Global South outreach push 4) LFP: currently working with some libraries on the border Roger 1) Report-back from 33c3 -- happy to answer questions. 2) Working with Shari and Jon on invites for Amsterdam. 3) Follow-up on loose ends from Hamburg meetings. 4) I'm reviewing PETS papers this week. 5) Next week I'm going to the NSF PI meeting and the FTC Privacy Showcase. 6) Shout-out to Kate!

(FWD) Tor at the Pre-Conference R&D Networking Event
by Roger Dingledine 06 Jan '17

06 Jan '17

Would you like to help me explain Tor, and how we relate to privacy, to researchers and government agencies at the FTC PrivacyCon event in Washington DC on Jan 11? Lorrie asked me to sign us up, because she wants Tor to be represented there. It would be great if it's not just me. :) --Roger ----- Forwarded message from Roger Dingledine <arma(a)mit.edu> ----- Date: Mon, 12 Dec 2016 01:29:58 -0500 From: Roger Dingledine <arma(a)mit.edu> To: privacycon(a)ftc.gov Subject: Tor at the Pre-Conference R&D Networking Event Hi Lorrie, others, Please sign us up for some space at your Jan 11 event: https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/press-releases/2016/11/ftc-host-rd-networki… Name of organization: The Tor Project Name of contact person: Roger Dingledine Email address of contact person: arma(a)mit.edu One paragraph description of the organization's interest in privacy research: The Tor Project is a free-software non-profit project to build an anonymity toolkit used by individuals, companies, governments, and law enforcement around the world: https://www.torproject.org/ Tor is central to a myriad of research collaborations supported by the National Science Foundation and related funders. On the metrics and measurement side, we're working on how to safely and ethically collect usage statistics about the Tor network. On the network side, we're developing architectural improvements like stronger crypto in next-generation onion services, and ways to detect and resist denial-of-service attacks on Tor without impacting user privacy. On the censorship side, we're deploying a global infrastructure where users launch censorship tests and safely report their results. And on the application side, we're building better browser behavior so users can control what information websites get to learn about them. The Tor network has grown since its start in 2002 to several million active users pushing over 80 Gbps of traffic. The Tor Project has a staff of 28 developers, researchers, and advocates, plus several dozen volunteers who help out on a daily basis. Thanks! --Roger ----- End forwarded message -----

R, a student from India. You can know more about me from here[1] and here[2]. I have been running a Tor relay for sometime and now I am interested in contributing to the Tor Project. Specifically, I would like to work on IP Hijacking detection for Tor relays. I understand this does not involve directly with the Tor core hence I think this project is ideal in getting my feet wet with the Tor Community and get me started for further contributions to the Tor Project. > > > BGP hijacking is difficult without inside help from ISP's(I think ?) but state run adversaries don't necessarily have this problem. This has a great risk of exposing all Tor clients or even mess around with the name resolution in exit relays. I have also read about incidents where an attacker using BGP hijacking, hijacked a portion of a Bitcoin mining pool traffic to pay himself instead of the people contributing the processing power. I feel BGP has major security implications in this aspect and a monitoring service is necessary. There are many monitoring services and we can possibly leverage one of them for the routing data. > > The main motive of the service would be to find anomalies/ malicious changes in the routing information compared to previous snapshots of the same. How do we actually do this comparison ? Any pointers for that ? The project also mentions that the service should be Tor-aware. What exactly does this mean ? Does it mean that, it should monitor all tor relays ip addresses ?

We want your feedback on the redesigned Tor metrics website! (DUE: 1/5/2017)
by Linda Naeun Lee 02 Jan '17

02 Jan '17

Hello all, The metrics and UX team have teamed up to make a more usable and useful metrics webpage. Prototype: http://107.23.39.12/index.html Feedback pad: https://pad.riseup.net/p/esVoPphdMGnU Please provide feedback by January 5th 2017 at 15:00 UTC on the pad rather than emailing this thread. You are welcome to share the pad with people you think would provide valuable feedback. The pad has all the information you need to know--and poking around the prototype for a couple minutes and giving us your immediate thoughts (~5 minutes) should be sufficient. But if you want additional information on what we changed and how we worked on this, here's the (slightly not up to date) project page: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/UX/MetricsRedesign Cheers, Linda -- Current Key: https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?search=lindanaeunlee GPG Fingerprint: FA0A C9BE 2881 B347 9F4F C0D7 BE70 F826 5ED2 8FA2

iOS AppStore - Trademark violations
by Nima Fatemi 23 Dec '16

23 Dec '16

Hey there, Following the great news that Onion Browser for iOS finally became free, I took a look at Apple AppStore to see what other apps are there that are pretending to be "the" Tor for iOS, and unfortunately found plenty that use Tor logo or brand name to promote themselves. Most of which are not free (as in beer / nor as in freedom) and seem to be even injecting ads to users. The worst part... some of them have hundreds of 5 star reviews. So I collected a bunch of them under this ticket: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/20873 However I couldn't find the right component to file the ticket under. So I thought I'd drop a line to the mailing list and let people know this exists, in case the ones who need to deal with these issues read the mailing list. Should we have a legal component on trac? Enjoy the weekend! -- Nima 0X58C4B928A3E218F6 | @mrphs "I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it" --Evelyn Beatrice Hall
