Link to tor project (they made the icon I grabbed, and tor itself of course): https://www.torproject.org/

This is a community to discuss the tor project and your experience with tor, tor browser, etc.

Rules are generally: be nice, don't be bigoted, etc.

Only seems fair that an infosec instance should have a community about one of the most well known anonymity tools :)

In the early web days there was a service where you email an URL to a certain email address and it responded with an email with the webpage attached.

We need that back. We need it to escape arbitrary anti-Tor anti-VPN forms of enshitification.

archive.org is very useful but we cannot rely on it.

Email has also become enshitified and it’s rightfully distrusted and even abandoned by the few true resisters who exist. So ideally it would be an onion email address that takes in the requests. Perhaps an onion activitypub UI as well.

It would be trivial to ddos, and likewise for the receiving mail server. Sounds like an amplification attack by design.
