Onion Debian Services Are Now Available (debian.org)

"I just set up a lot of Onion Services for many of Debian's static websites," announced Debian sys-admin Peter "weasel" Palfrader on Friday. "You can find the entire list of services on onion.debian.org. More might come in the future." Longtime Slashdot reader alfino writes: Yay for privacy. We don't care about where you come from, and now you don't even have to tell anyone that you're using Debian. The archive at ftp.debian.org is already in the list. Support for more redundant Debian archive access is expected to come When It's Ready.

"Yay for privacy"?

that's great, but they STILL do not obfuscate email addresses on debian's bugtracker, and they've taken some heat over the years for it. i've had more than one email account flooded with spam so bad they've had to be abandoned because of that, and eventually just said 'fuck it' and i don't even bother anymore, it is just not worth it.

I don't get it.

Usually, I get the Onion's satire but this time it alludes me.

I think the next time they should go after BSD or Windows.

In the meantime, I read some funny shit about the election.

Is that what's making that whooosh sound? Should turn it off before the onion makes someone cry, and put it back on your belt.

Re:Ew no.

TOR is no secure in the least anymore, why would you still use that garbage.

Yeah totally - and that Bruce Schnider just joined their board of directors too! What does HE know about SECURITY?? What a joke.

"...now you don't even have to tell anyone that you're using Debian."

Oh the shame, what would my neighbors say if they knew I was using Debian? They'd probably stop picketing the child molester's house down the street and come after me with torches and pitchforks.
