Van Loan's Misleading Claims: Case for Lawful Access Not Closed

,----[ Quote ]
| Without a doubt, society needs to ensure that police have 
| the ability to deal with serious crime.  Yet, public 
| concern about lawful access comes directly from privacy 
| fears and the absence of compelling evidence that the 
| current system has created serious barriers to police 
| investigations.  The latest reliance on a case that did not 
| even involve ISP records should only heighten skepticism 
| about the government's proposed lawful access reforms.

Tor partially blocked in China

,----[ Quote ]
| On September 25, 2009, the Great Firewall of China blocked the
| public list of relays and directory authorities by simple IP
| address blocks. Currently, about 80% of the public relays are
| blocked by IP address and TCP port combination. Tor users are
| still connecting to the network through bridges. At the simplest
| level, bridges are non-public relays that don't exit traffic, but
| instead send it on to the rest of the Tor network.
