https://www.iceinmyarea.org/ wouldn't let me on the website because I'm using Tor Browser in safer mode and WebGL is blocked (Vercel Security Checkpoint Failed to verify your browser Code 11) and I'm not willing to go on a website like that without using Tor Browser. I really don't trust anything that doesn't trust Tor Browser.
They’ve been chipping away at Tor browser for a while now. It’s well known that it can be fingerprinted now. I think it was like last year or something where they made a change they lied about and got caught. Eventually enough people had it that someone finally tested the damn thing and demonstrated the flaw. The tor browser people said too bad we’re not changing it. It was something that was intentionally introduced to enable fingerprinting on tor. The network itself seems very good but tor browser itself, not so much
I’m not saying to stop using tor, but you really should diversify your shit. Look into i2p, set up a reticulum node, get multiple options ready. The great danger of tor is that damn near everybody involved in darknet stuff is using it, which means it’s an incredibly appealing target for the feds who have demonstrated they are not to be trusted
I just assume any and all communications are being monitored by the NSA, or somebody even more secretive. VPNs, browsers, etc. may fool the standard id confirmations and such, but they aren't evading the top spooks.
If they want you, they'll get you, no matter what precautions you take.
Agreed but if they are going to run around playing nazi games, I’m gonna make them work for it.
Of course, we are already at the point where they lie and just make shit up anyway so it’s mostly an intellectual exercise at this point.
It wouldn't let me there either. Not sure it's my VPN or my browser, but I figured most people aren't going to have as intense of a privacy set-up as we do. I also don't know of an alternative to that site now that the ICE Block app was removed from stores.
For all I know, the website could be a honeypot, although I have no reason to suspect that. But I don't know who the developer is, I don't know what Vercel is, I don't know why Anubis isn't sufficient.
