German Police Arrest Admin of Tor Anonymity Server

An anonymous reader writes "In a recent blog posting, a German operator of a Tor anonymous proxy server revealed that he was arrested by German police officers at the end of July. Showing up at his house at midnight on a Sunday night, police cuffed and arrested him in front of his wife and seized his equipment. In a display of both bitter irony and incompetence, the police did not take or shut-down the Tor server responsible for the traffic they were interested in, which was located in a data center, over 500km away. In the last year, Germany has passed a draconian new anti-security research law and raided seven different data centers to seize Tor servers. While back in 2003, A German court ordered the developers of a different anonymity network to build a back-door into their system."

Hrm? Who was criticizing israel? Heck, I criticize Israel for a lot of their narrow-minded policies. You have no concept of what you speak of, and those with small minds should not try for such large words.

You, my dear sir, have been brainwashed by those above you. They sick you like an attack dog, making you revile a group while they steal your money, resources and livlihoods, leaving you with nothing but your hatred. You poor pitiful fool. So long as you hate blindly, you are a slave. Break free of the bonds within your own mind, embrace your true friends, those that your masters wish to have you hate, rise up, free yourself before it is too late...
