Isn't Tor a concept, a protocol? It's like saying you're going to rewrite http in rust...

Onion routing is the protocol. Tor is the network and the name of the reference implementation.

It's a product. You can download and implement it's many components.

No.

My phone constantly autocorrects "the" to "Tue" (short for tuesday), even when that makes no sense in the sentence. I presume I'm accidentally typing "tue" but why it always corrects it that was is baffling

Maybe I'm just weird but I have notes on my phone that I just add stuff to when I want to remember it. Random possible future project idea? Goes in the project ideas note. Something I need to buy? Goes in the shopping list note. The idea of having to tell my hand what my idea is, and by extension everyone around me, feels horrible, when I could privately just add it in and not have to worry about if text to speech actually got what I said right

I mean, that's what I do with my ring...

Cool.

What is classed as a social media? I expect they'd want to view by personal instagram, but what about my old business Xitter account that I can't even get into because something went wonky with the 2fa? What about my github? My HN account? Do they want to see my discord history? How will they find my accounts anyway? Not all of them are under the same account name, real name or email address

Laws are not enforced by machines, but by humans.

The answer to all of those is "yes" and they will not bother to find them, they will ask you to list them. Omitting information or providing false information on your visa application is a felony.

It's the same logic as behind the "Are you a terrorist?" question. Lying is itself a crime, and can be used to prosecute you in the future.

Since when was any of this arbitrary stuff "law"? It's just rules the executive branch is making up.

I think the point to many of those questions/requirements are to ensure absolutely everyone can be prosecuted or deported because it's basically impossible to complete the immigration process or just about any other complicated government process without doing something that could possibly be construed in the most uncharitable way as being answered incorrectly.

"You failed to tell us that you made a single post on an obscure forum 4.5 years ago that questioned if capitalism was truly a good system, have fun being deported to a random country, you communist"

I've quoted Marx on HN on more than one occasion. I'm not sure they'd like my social media profile, despite having also been consistent in arguing for liberal freedoms that the US used to like to claim to favour.

I've visited the US many times, but I have no intention of going back under the current regime.

I transited through China earlier this year, and I frankly felt less concerned doing that - despite having criticised the Chinese government online many times over the years - than I would feel about entering the US at this point.

You used to be asked "Are you a gunrunner?", we all had to lie about that.

in part 4, it seems like most of the time was just fighting against rust's semantics for how code should exist, and it made me wonder if rust was really the right tool for this? Every time I see something like this, it just sort of reinforces my belief that to write code in rust, you have to spend half your time fighting with how rust thinks code should work

I'm hoping this doesn't apply to things like Fiddler, because without the ability to see what's actually coming over the wire with a https connection, things can be a nightmare to debug sometimes

The title probably wants the original quotes put back in

Children who are hell bent on bypassing controls will always find a way. It helps them not just stumble on it though when they're not ready. If they really want to access it, they already know about it and what it is
