It's oppression because your system would deprive the people of free will and choice. You may do everything, do what you want, as long as you do not form a body where representatives of the many go to decide what the many will do communally.
I want to be taxed. I want to pay so institutions without commercial interest can teach my kids, foster research that the profit-mongers don't care to do for lack of instant financial incentive. I want emergency services that are above making a wallet biopsy their main criterion in the decision whether to save me or not.
Your world is the same to me as living under Stalin or Hitler, for it will forbid me to lead the life I want to live because it doesn't fit in its ideology.
Thank you astor, kmfkewm. One further question: if we were to assume an adversary has control over some number of entry guards (which the government likely does), and has control over a similarly sized botnet as to what has been observed on the tor network currently (which the government likely could), would there be any advantage to using a botnet in conjunction with the entry guard exploit over just the entry guard exploit alone?
We'll free you from oppression with our new, improved and better oppression...
One thing concerns me a little.. "F" in your payload description. I think I get why it's there (so you can know which of your friends has already seen it),
F. Information allowing the people who obtain the message to determine which of their other contacts have been pointed to the message
1. It can't be an actual list, because the payload stays static after its written.
2. So it has to be something that your client can use to derive search keys and loop through your contacts, seeing who has received a link to
it via more searches. The problem is, what are they searching for? Are clients going to post a read-receipt?
And any time you only require (something from the Payload) and (a list of contacts) to pull that list of who has links, an adversary should be able to loop through *all* known contacts in the system and see if each has seen it.
It prevents you from resending the links to people who have seen the payload, but most of the downside of accidentally resending it to someone who's seen it (deep copies) is negated by the tiny size of the metadata object. You'll know which of your friends were on the threads.
How would a public forum (aka newsgroup, whatever) work? You'd need a way to search for all metadata objects tagged as belonging to that group, grab them, apply WoT/etc, then download payload for whatever you actually want. But public forums aren't one-to-many messaging, they're one-to-ANY messaging, and that's actually significantly different from your described use case.
The main reason that I think that public forums are so important to anonymous communities is that they're one of the few ways for new people to join in discussion. Otherwise, while you might end up with your own slowly-growing circle of trusted friends, and that works great for you. But the new guy can only talk to himself. Plus, you need a plausible way to introduce your sockpuppets to your friends.
As an example (of a new guy, not sockpuppetry), I just showed up on SRF because I enjoyed browsing some of the security-related threads. I'm probably not the target market here. Don't buy/sell on SR, haven't seen anything for sale there that fits my boring lifestyle. But this place has an impressively diverse, open-minded crowd, and one that's actively *applying* anonymity technology.
.
This is why you use only one type of encryption when you absolutely positively can not have the payload compromised: OTP. Maths say it can not be cracked, and even if your 4096-bit public key encryption cant be cracked today doesnt mean it cant be cracked tomorrow - see wired's article about a mathematician, google, and dkim for one example of this being applied in practice.
So to future proof your encryption the only way to go is OTP. When you see someone you know, exchange pads, and you're good to communicate completely securely as long as the integrity of the pad is not compromised
Totalitarianism (or totalitarian rule) is a term employed by some political scientists to describe a political system in which the state holds total authority over the society and seeks to control all aspects of public and private life wherever possible.[1]
Totalitarianism is an extreme version of authoritarianism. Authoritarianism primarily differs from totalitarianism in that social and economic institutions exist that are not under governmental control. Building on the work of Yale political scientist Juan Linz, Paul C. Sondrol of the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs has examined the characteristics of authoritarian and totalitarian dictators and organized them in a chart:
Elaborate guiding ideology.
Single mass party, typically led by a dictator.
System of terror, using such instruments as violence and secret police.
Monopoly on weapons.
Monopoly on the means of communication.
Central direction and control of the economy through state planning.
No, Totalibertarians are against terrorism and hope to struggle against the terroristic states to overthrow them from power. We also against the terrorists in society and want to smash them into submission. Once we take over the world libertarianism will be strictly enforced, and even if 80% of the world says they want something different well they can get fucked. Totalibertarianism is a benevolent dictatorship with visions of global domination. We will violently force the world to be free and relentlessly punish those who do not want it to be. People can beg us to allow slavery, they can vote for slavery in overwhelming numbers, but we will tell them they cannot have it. The people can beg us and plead with us to censor information, but we will tell them that information is free regardless of what they wish. The people can protest us telling us we must allow them to steal, but we will never allow this to happen regardless of how much they beg and plead with us. Society can say that their social contract said people cannot use drugs, and we will laugh hysterically at them and say that we have revoked their social contract. Wealth and prosperity will sweep the nations, people will be full in the streets, and as much as they beg us otherwise we will not allow it. When the supporters of the state move to arrest prostitutes we will immediately charge them with kidnapping and send them to rot in prison. When they try to steal drugs from drug dealers we will charge them with armed robbery and send them to rot in prison. When they try to arrest people for viewing pictures, be they of muhammed or naked 15 year olds, we will charge them with kidnapping and send them to prisons. Indeed we will build massive prisons on isolated islands and ship all of the loyalists of the state to them, where they will live a life of modest inconvenience until they are educated as to the wrongness of their deeds (although we may need a purge of some of them, to make a statement against the freedom they have allowed!).
Trust me, in a totalibertarian society there is no freedom of the people. They can want to rob and kill and murder and oppress and we will not allow it, despite the wishes of the majority! We will use giant weapons and a massive force of soldiers to rip the freedom to oppress from the people. In Totalibertarianism, there is no individual choice, an individual can not choose to steal from others or to oppress others. Only the laws of the Worlds Totalibertarian Army matter at all, and it does not matter how many others are against them they will be violently enforced across the world.
HEIL LIBERTY! Quick kids hide, the Liberty SS is on the prowl...
Kids do not need to fear Totalibertarianism! Indeed, our policies will be beneficial for them! The only people who are against Totalibertarianism are brainwashed, or they are evil people such as thieves. Indeed, no other political philosophy is as peaceful as ours, or as tolerant as ours. Nobody has a legitimate reason to fear us or to not support us, our desire is to abolish all laws other than the most fundamental laws that no reasonable person could possibly disagree with. We will strictly ban murder, rape, and stealing, as well as other similar crimes. However, we are perfectly tolerant of the drug dealers, of the CP viewers, the drug users, the men who wish to have sex with young people who are at least old enough to consent, of the racists who wish to discriminate in hiring practices, of the minority races who do not wish to be enslaved, of the people who produce and want to keep what they produce, of the people who do not want to pay extortion money to the government, the prostitutes and the johns, the religious people who do not wish to force their religious belief on others as well as the non-religious people who do not wish for beliefs to be forced onto them, of the business owners who wish to run their stores how they see fit, the product inventors who wish for their products to be regulated as they see fit, the people who wish to use only certified products, the gays who wish to marry, the people of the world! The list goes on and on, indeed the peace and tolerance of Totalibertarianism is nearly infinite in scope!
So you do not need to fear us if you are a good person, and no children need to run from us. Rather you should run to us and join us in our global struggle to dominate the world and enforce the principles of Totalibertarianism, which indeed are indistinguishable from the principles of Tolerance and Peace.
Conform with our non-conformity or be dominated...
Do you think that we should allow the thieves to continue robbing? If the majority desires so? Should we allow the slave traders to continue to enslave people for their profits? If the majority so desires? People who do not conform to Totalibertarianism OUGHT to be dominated. Almost nobody even wants the level of freedom offered by totalibertarianism, so it is not like people can say we do not support freedom! In their minds our problem is that we support too much freedom! Under our rule not enough people are enslaved! We offer far more freedom than the masses desire, anyone who does not conform to our policies must be dominated for the good of human kind. We cannot allow for a democracy to dictate the laws, democracy is a failed experiment. The only way for a better society is for the entire world to be dominated by a benevolent force.
Totalibertarianism is Orwellian in a way. We will use the most advanced technologies and techniques in order to detect all dissent, which will be squashed like a bug. This means that robbers and slave traders and rapists and murders and violent criminals will not be safe, they will be immediately detected and imprisoned. We will have very little restriction on our enforcement agencies, and for once in the history of mankind it will be true when they say if you have done nothing wrong you have nothing to worry about. We will wipe active dissidents (thieves, robbers, rapists, etc) off the face of the earth with an unprecedented ruthlessness.
Stalin would approve...
