  • It’s worth a try asking your current members in a local sticky-post. Just make sure you do a realistic estimation on how often you might not be available so that they know how involved it might become.

    Otherwise the people over at db0 are trialing an “armada” concept of sharing admin burdens between instances. So that is also something you might want to consider.

    Those work fine with Anubis.

    Anubis is fairly stupid in reality. It only checks the request at all if it looks like a regular browser (and thus catches the scrapers that pretend to be regular browsers to hide in normal traffic). If you use an RSS reader for example that doesn’t hide the fact that it is a RSS reader, then Anubis will send it right through.













  • A timing attack is extremely realistic when you control one of the end devices which is a common scenario if a person gets arrested or their device compromised. This way you can then identify who the contacts are and with the phone number you can easily get the real name and movement patterns.

    This is like the ideal setup for law inforcement, and it is well documented that honeypot “encrypted” messengers have been set up for similar purposes before. Signal was probably not explicitly set up for that, but the FBI for sure has an internal informant that could run those timing attacts.
