Title: How Is ACTA Going to effect The road?
Post by: code2012 on February 03, 2012, 11:05 am
Hello folks, Ive been wondering about this for a while now since the sopa thing started popping up, How is acta going to effect our security/ getting on to the website? I know the us has already signed it along with a handful of others. Also especially considering that the internet providers are going to be monitoring everything... Any knowledge from anyone on this subject would be great thanks!

let them monitor, they cant see inside the anonymized encrypted packets to know what anyone is doing.

worst feasible scenario, they copy iran's lead and cripple tor.

worst possible scenario the government implements one of the theoretical attacks against tor, for example see french research where they managed to break the encryption. wiki page on tor has more info. but this is not feasible as they must control 1/3 of the nodes, so the more users on tor the less feasible this becomes.
