Anonymous Web surfing with TorK

Fri, 16 May 2008 18:00:00 GMT
Everyone who surfs the Net is eminently trackable. Internet data packets include not only the actual data being sent, but also headers with routing information that is used to guide the packages to their destinations. Even if you use encryption for extra safety, the routing information -- which cannot be encrypted -- can reveal details about what you're doing, who you're talking to, what services you're connecting to, and what data you're accessing. Intermediaries (authorized or not) can also see that data and learn about you. If you want a higher level of anonymity, TorK can do the job. It uses The Onion Router (Tor) network to provide you with a safer way of browsing.

Surfing the web with Lynx

Linux detected my modem(finally!) and I then proceeded it to configure it with Minicom according to the instructions here. I got it configured, and can dial up to my ISP, but now I am trying to figure out how to get Lynx to use the connection. Any ideas? (3 Replies)

Net::DRI::Transport::Defer(3pm) 			User Contributed Perl Documentation			   Net::DRI::Transport::Defer(3pm)

NAME
Net::DRI::Transport::Defer - Deferred Transport for Net::DRI DESCRIPTION
This module implements a deferred transport in Net::DRI. For now it just dumps all data to a given filehandle, and reports back to Net::DRI that the message has been sent. This is useful for debugging, and also to validate all parameters of an operation without actually sending anything to the registry ; in such way, it is kind of a "simulate" operation where everything is done (parameters validation, message building, etc...) without touching the registry. METHODS
At creation (see Net::DRI "new_profile") you pass a reference to an hash, with the following available keys: protocol_connection Net::DRI class handling protocol connection details. (Ex: "Net::DRI::Protocol::RRP::Connection" or "Net::DRI::Protocol::EPP::Connection") dump_fh (optional) a filehandle (ex: *STDERR or an anonymous filehandle) on something already opened for write ; if not defined, defaults to *STDERR SUPPORT
For now, support questions should be sent to: <netdri@dotandco.com> Please also see the SUPPORT file in the distribution. SEE ALSO
