Re: [tor-talk] "Safeplug"



Some more information from [1]

- "users can whitelist certain sites so that their use is not run through Tor."

- "Users can also set up Safeplug to work on a per-browser basis, so for
  example Firefox may always run through Tor while Chrome wonât."

- "users can also set themselves up as Tor nodes to help others surf
  anonymously (the default setting for this is âoffâ as it has bandwidth
  implications)."

- "People who are sceptical can look at the Linux level(sic) and see exactly
  what processes are running. Technical users can look inside the box and feel
  safe that itâs only running Tor.â"

- "Pogoplug has even made firmware updates for the device pull-only, not push
  â âIf we pushed, weâd have to track all the boxes. Itâs pull-based for
  security reasons.â"
