[liberationtech] thoughts about Telex?

[The Dod]

Indeed, the role of states in telex.cc paradigm is kinda spooky. First time I read about it I went "so THAT'S how USA does the internet in a suitcase trick" (not telex, but a similar idea). Pretty soon, the most powerful regimes will have their own "internets" for their "pet revolutions" against other regimes. So CIA :-)

Telex is an interesting proxy-less anti-censorship system designed to combat state-level censorship (pdf). But would it cost too much? Should we really trust "good" state-level actors with our anti-censorship efforts? And might it divert resources from established anonymity projects, like Tor, I2I, Freenet, etc.
