I know people that have some of the information that is hush hush want to tell the public but are scared. Would it be possible to set up a secure and encrypted place for the people who want to tell us hush hush information. I am not an expert with this stuff, but isnt there a way so the person who uploaded the file cant be traced. It is just an idea.

Tell me what you think about the possibilites of it working simon william, or bob88!!

As for all the other members tell me what you think about the idea.

Check this site out, they use IP scrambling software to (supposedly) make you totally anonymous.

Freenet is free software which lets you publish and obtain information on the Internet without fear of censorship. To achieve this freedom, the network is entirely decentralized and publishers and consumers of information are anonymous. Without anonymity there can never be true freedom of speech, and without decentralization the network will be vulnerable to attack.
Communications by Freenet nodes are encrypted and are "routed-through" other nodes to make it extremely difficult to determine who is requesting the information and what its content is.

Users contribute to the network by giving bandwidth and a portion of their hard drive (called the "data store") for storing files. Unlike other peer-to-peer file sharing networks, Freenet does not let the user control what is stored in the data store. Instead, files are kept or deleted depending on how popular they are, with the least popular being discarded to make way for newer or more popular content. Files in the data store are encrypted to reduce the likelihood of prosecution by persons wishing to censor Freenet content.

The network can be used in a number of different ways and isn't restricted to just sharing files like other peer-to-peer networks. It acts more like an Internet within an Internet. For example Freenet can be used for:

Publishing websites or 'freesites'
Communicating via message boards
Playing simple turn-based games like Chess
Content distribution
Freenet is not just theoretical, it has been downloaded by over 1.2 million users since the project started, and it is used for the distribution of censored information all over the world, including countries such as China and the Middle East. Ideas and concepts pioneered in Freenet have inspired hundreds of academic papers in the fields of computer communication, security, and law. Freenet has also received significant coverage in the mainstream press.


freenet.sourceforge.net...

Also perfect for downloading copyrighted material without the RIAA getting on your a$$

Also the fact you are advertising the fact that you have this information on a public board doesnt help your chances at keeping it quiet...

Pretty sure it can be traced, there is a place that assign's IP addresses (IANA), so whatever you do you are traceable. Oh and guess who funds IANA? uncle sam!

When you are on the net, you can be traced period.
If they want you they'll have found you in seconds, but if you were a threat, i'm sure you wouldnt be typing right now. The best chance is to get the information and post it now before someone stops you.

If you make the persons name public they wont come after him for fear of being implicated.

I do not have any information or know of any people who do, but i am pretty possitive there must be a couple people on this board who do. I want some of those people to step foward with the information thouhg.

If i ever had any information i would make sure to make a post about it.



On a side note!!! Dragonrider you are like a walking encyclopedia/search engine. You can make a good size post with good information and a link within a very short amount of time. I am complamenting you on this, do not take it as a bad thing.
