Comment on Show HN: Streisand – Silence censorship, automate the effect

Awesome. I'm actually building a company right now around an almost identical product. We aren't open sourcing it yet but we will eventually. Would love to talk about this with you (email in profile).

Any plans to integrate AAA with radius or similar? Any plans for squidproxy?

Also, I'm planning on working on a tool to easily deploy Tor hidden services as soon as I get some time. I think there's value in that aspect of your project alone -- maybe consider breaking it off on its own.

I honestly hadn't even heard of AAA in the context of RADIUS before reading about it on Wikipedia just now. I only tangentially know about RADIUS from seeing it in various WiFi control panels over the years.

I considered using Squid somewhere in Streisand, thinking that it might be a nice feature for mobile users in particular. However, one of my main goals with this project was to set up servers that didn't log any information under any circumstances about the sites that clients were visiting or their IP addresses. A caching proxy by definition is going to have to store some of the assets that users are requesting, so I abandoned the idea. Perhaps you are using it differently though?

I appreciate the feedback! By the way, your email does not appear to be in your profile.

Whoops -- it's there now.
