[$] A look at the Sequoia command-line interface
The Sequoia OpenPGP library has been in development for some time. LWN covered the library in 2020. Now the project's command-line interface has been released. The sq tool offers a promising alternative to the venerable GNU Privacy Guard (GPG) tool — albeit one with a different interface, set of terminology, and approach to the web of trust. Several distributions are making increasing use of the tool behind the scenes.
2024: Year in Review (Tor Blog)
The Tor Project has published a review of major milestones from 2024, including merging with the Tails project, work to enable human-friendly .onion addresses, and the launch of WebTunnel:
By mimicking common internet protocols, WebTunnel improves the resilience of the Tor network in regions with heavy censorship. And since its launch earlier this year, we've made sure to prioritize small download sizes for more convenient distribution and simplified the support of uTLS integration further mimicking the characteristics of more widespread browsers. This makes Webtunnel safe for general users because it helps conceal the fact that a tool like Tor is being used.Announcing the pkgsrc-2024Q4 branch
The pkgsrc developers have announced the 2024Q4 branch of the pkgsrc cross-platform packaging system. It is the default package manager for NetBSD, SmartOS, and is available for Linux as well. This marks the 85th quarterly release of pkgsrc:
