And one more thing before I drift off -- the base of the issue between jondo and tor, for me, is that unless you can know the location of the servers and who owns them they could all be in one country -- perhaps even the USA. In that case, the nodes are not located in different countries with different privacy laws and systems. They are in one country where there may or may not be real privacy laws. With an international jondo mix, someone that wants to get your surfing data has to navigate many different legal systems which entails quite a lot of effort and political capital for little old you and me. Tor affords no such in-built bureaucratic and cross border static to protect us. Maybe if we were friggin international terrorists trying to bring down the statue of liberty it'd be worth LE's effort, but frankly what most of us discuss here is small beans to LE. Its not just like whipping up a couple information subpoenas and calling your process server. Even assuming LE in all three of the mix countries are easy going and freely provide such info to foreign LE at little inter-agency cost (a pipe dream), many of the countries in the jondo mixes have pretty good security laws and LE may likely not have the option. Its a long winding road of gubmint and legal crap that LE better have a juicy honey pot at the end of or someone has to wash all the egg off their face.

She encouraged me to post some information I put together that may be useful to people who are interested in increasing their anonymity online. For my part my goal is to explain some dark corners and to create a discussion space on the subjects of JonDo, Tor and internet tracking. I break the initial discussion into five posts as follows: *Introduction *Online Anonymity - what it is & how to Rating: 5
