Onion Browser for iPhone promises total Web anonymity

Onion Browser for iPhone promises total Web anonymity

[PJ: I don't know if anything can promise "total" anonymity.]

torproject.org agrees with you, PJ. Every release of the tor client has put out the following message at startup:

Apr 27 16:00:31.608 [notice] Tor v0.2.2.35 (git-b04388f9e7546a9f). This is experimental software. Do not rely on it for strong anonymity.

Govt. hires Oklahoma bomber lawyer for Google litigation
Authored by: Anonymous on Friday, April 27 2012 @ 09:05 PM EDT
reports the NYT. Honestly, what a waste of taxpayer money. Is this the government that is supposed to encourage innovation and progress? Where was this sudden interest in bringing justice and investigating "monopoly" when those handful of Wall Street investment bankers and financial institutions drained the wealth of the country and drove it into an economic crisis by monopolizing and manipulating the financial markets??? I feel like freedom is under a vicious attack. Not only did they secretly fast track CISPA, now they are systematically targeting any and all innovation on the web. It is loathsome and nauseating.

Opera and Webkit CSS Extensions
Authored by: Anonymous on Sunday, April 29 2012 @ 11:42 AM EDT
Webkit is used as the rendering engine for; Google Chrome,
Apple Safari, in the default browser in the iOS, Android,
BlackBerry Tablet OS, Nintendo 3DS, Epiphany(Used in Gnome
desktops), Konquer- alternate (Used in KDE Desktops), Midori
(Used in the LXDE and LDE Linux Desktops), The Amazon Kindle
(Not fire- the Fire is Android Based and also uses Webkit),
Nokia S60, and webOS mobile operating systems. There are
also about 20 other OSS Browsers that use Webkit.

Webkit is OSS.

With a few exceptions, such as the Windows Phones and a few
Windows CE tablets, if you are using a; Tablet, Smartphone,
E-Reader (Such as a Kindle, Kindle Fire, or B&N Nook), some
Linux Distros, or a modern Mac you are using a Webkit based
browser by default. Webkit browsers account for the largest
share of all browsers on the internet.

Because of it's OSS nature, Mozilla could, probably very
easily, support their extensions in Gecko if they don't do
so already... As could IE (Trident) and Opera (Presto).

The Gecko teams (Mozilla) and Webkit teams due to both being
OSS rendering engines can, and probably do, share. This is
an advantage over closed rendering engines.

I don't blame webdesigners for writing exclusively for
Webkit...

As Opera is supporting Webkit CSS extensions, and as stated
above Firefox, if it doesn't already, easily could support
them, the only reason not to is because you want IE to show
the page right... So since Opera will support them and
Firefox could, if not already doing so, support them, the
answer is to write Microsoft and ask them to support Webkit
extensions. Or you could always install Google Chrome,
Opera, or Safari on your Windows computer and use that
instead of IE.
