Oh please. I live in a geographical location whose authorities deem the word pr0xy evil and thus prevent me from downloading anything whose name contains those four letters in sequence, including the dependencies of Gnome and KDE, thus forcing me to abort installation, use an http pr0xy, manually download the file, rename the file to it's correct name, manually stick it in /var/cache/apt/archives/ and continue the install.craigevil wrote:while it was about Tor it was more about the political problems than the technical and as such doesn't belong on this forum.

Just about anything can be made to be "obviously" anything. Why do we need security? To protect ourselves from intruders. Like who? Governments. Thread deleted - obviously political content.
