[tor-talk] Anonymous Blogging with Tor and Wordpress?
Hello, everyone. :)
First of all, I just want to give a huge thanks to everyone who's involved
with Tor. Ever since I started using it, I have felt a refreshing sense of
freedom and empowerment that I did not at all anticipate when I downloaded
the Tor Browser. I am now speaking up boldly on issues that I wouldn't
have dared to voice an opinion on for fear of a nasty corporate lawsuit or
a figurative online lynching. And, as I listen to the perspectives of
people responding to my thoughts, I am even becoming willing to speak about
the issues under my "real" internet name. So thank you very much--I'll be
recommending Tor to my friends and family for all their anonymity needs.
:)
Okay, so on to my question. I've been thinking about writing a hosted
Wordpress blog anonymously via Tor, but I can't find any up to date
information on the topic. The source that I see splashed everywhere is
Ethan Zuckerman's guide, but that hasn't been updated since
2009--practically 10,000 years ago in internet time. The guide is here:
http://advocacy.globalvoicesonline.org/projects/guide/
- Is the information in the guide still valid, or is it out of date?
- Has anyone actually tried to make and break a Wordpress blog's
Tor-guarded anonymity lately? I mean, do we actually *know *that Tor
works for this purpose, or is it just something that "everybody says"?
- Are there any recently-added or possible-to-enable features of
Wordpress (i.e. javascripts) that could reveal my IP address to Wordpress?
- Should I be using Wordpress for my hosting needs at all, or is there a
better platform for anonymous blogging with Tor?
If you can give me some guidance on these issues, I'd be happy to put
together a new guide updated for our modern era so that everyone can
benefit. :)
Thanks again!
Jennifer
