Miguel Afonso Caetano<p>"When launching privacy-critical apps and services, developers want to make sure that every packet really only goes through Tor. One mistyped proxy setting–or a single system-call outside the SOCKS wrapper–and your data is suddenly on the line.</p><p>That's why today, we are excited to introduce oniux: a small command-line utility providing Tor network isolation for third-party applications using Linux namespaces. Built on Arti, and onionmasq, oniux drop-ships any Linux program into its own network namespace to route it through Tor and strips away the potential for data leaks. If your work, activism, or research demands rock-solid traffic isolation, oniux delivers it."</p><p><a href="https://blog.torproject.org/introducing-oniux-tor-isolation-using-linux-namespaces/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">blog.torproject.org/introducin</span><span class="invisible">g-oniux-tor-isolation-using-linux-namespaces/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Tor" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tor</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/CyberSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CyberSecurity</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Privacy</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Anonymity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Anonymity</span></a> <a href="https://tldr.nettime.org/tags/Oniux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Oniux</span></a></p>

Tommaso Gagliardoni<p>I have been thinking for a while about the issue of anonymity in Web3 (and, more in general, anonymous transactions).
