Davam sem kopii [zatim] 3 emailu z cpunks.org mailing listu, protoze ten dotaz mi pripadne velmi rozumny, stejne jako obe pripominky.
Rad bych znal mistni nazor na tema... tedy jake sluzby rozbehat, kdyz uz si stavim vlastni domaci server, ktery by mel pokryt vsechno mozne, co bezne pouzivame na rekneme Open Internetech?
Samozrejme by to bezelo na GNU/Linux, to je jasne... takze nejake doporuceni?
I'm currently working on both chef cookbooks and dockerfiles for a bunch of old services I used to run in the good old days (pre 2000) of cypherpunks. Boring stuff like qmail, tinydns, pgp keyserver. But I'm dying to know what fancy new services people are operating these days.
Any distributed chat ops? Blob/file storage? Remailers? Bitcoin pools? In another vein, what ops do you think a self-sufficient punk ought to be running?
I'm thinking I absolutely need:
- Tor endpoint
- vpn endpoint (openvpn?)
- smtp/imap sever (what's modern?)
- file/blob server (tahoe-lafs, camlistore?)
- jabber server (ejabberd?)

A word of caution: I have run both a high throughput remailer, and a low-bandwidth (3mb) TOR exit node, both in the early through mid aughts. If you are serious, you need to get you legal house in order, as you will be spending a fair bit of your time with the feebies. Make sure you have an attorney who reallyunderstands what you are doing, and make sure s/he's got a hefty retainer ($5,000.00 seemed to be about right). Also, and most importantly, make sure this legal beagle is willing to both give you their direct cellphone/pager #, but that they are willing to actually drop everything and go get your ass out of the pokey at 03:00! And yes, 03:00-06:00 really is the favorite "raid time" for a certain testosterone addled federal police agency. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying don't do it: I think *everyone* should, at least for a years or so, for a variety of technical, political, and other reasons. But you *cannot* go in unprepared! //Alif
I think we need more hidden services to make the darknet more attractive, less exits. The open Internet has been dead for a while, time to accept it. Running a non-exit relay from home is still worthwhile, since it raises the bar for physical access, and also increases the traffic background. Decentral search is pretty important, we could really use lots of YaCy nodes as hidden services -- indexing not just the hidden web, of course. I wish there was a library of different privacy-based appliances in virtual formats (.ovf) which are kept up to date for easy deployment (even though running it on bare iron would be preferable). That would seem to be a lot of work, though, and run into trust issues.
