I'd be very interested in seeing a crypto community audit of the New Yorker's new anonymous tip protocol. Seems neat.  http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/closeread/2013/05/introducing-strongbox-anonymous-document-sharing-tool.html …logs/c…

I am impressed by the New Yorker's new anonymous file submission system, but I worry it's too complex for most users  http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/closeread/2013/05/introducing-strongbox-anonymous-document-sharing-tool.html …logs/c…

@matthall2000 @pents90 Even burners are hard to do... they still broadcast your location, and if that's inside the AP office...

@mattaikins @NewYorker @nxthompson I like tools too, but the payoff will come when StrongBox plays a part in an important story...

@NewYorker DeadDrop is not open source until you open the puppet recipes. Please do that.

If you’re stoked about @aaronsw’s DeadDrops/Strongbox, you should donate your box to Tor relays. There are only about 3000 around the world.

@jonathanstray There's currently no way to make things easier than Tor browser plus a web interface. You think that bar is too high?

@quinnnorton OTOH, it seems like a reasonable place for a targeted chunk of research; finding the pain points/places where people drop.

@harrisj to the air gapped one? That wouldn’t be good, but an internal one behind a vpn sounds good maybe I don’t know. Crypto is hard.

@mtigas Wonder if anyone would be up for building a DeadDrops LiveCD for curious newsrooms who want to run it on a spare box?

@harrisj worked wonderfully actually, every once in a while you have to restart to get a new exit node.
