  • I create also a "regular user" TorUser2To see if it generate the same problemsThis user have the .Xauthority file.\

     bash
        
# as root user
runuser -u TorUser2 -- /opt/tor-browser/start-tor-browser.desktop

    return Launching './Browser/start-tor-browser --detach...' and ps -u TorUser2 return nothing...

    I've tried also

     bash
        
runuser -l TorUser2 -c '/opt/tor-browser/start-tor-browser.desktop'

    /usr/bin/env: './Browser/execdesktop': No such file or directory

  • I've try one guidance, but it didn't worked.

    I quit the xfce, login as root, did

     bash
        
echo $XAUTHORITY
#returned nothing

XAUTHORITY=/tmp/.Xauthority.tmp
xauth -f $XAUTHORITY generate :0 . trusted

    and after few minute it returned

    xauth: (argv):1 unable to open display :0 😢

  • Thank you @mina86@lemmy.wtf I've look where point the $XAUTHORITY but it point to another user /home/<aUser>/.Xauthority and to give access to the file I have to change also the permission on the parent folders... not to hot to do so...

    I see also the TorUser do not have a file .Xauthority ! I've look how generate one for it, but I found no good documentation ! They show how do it once logged with TorUser ! but mine is not meant to be used to login on the system..

  • Thanks for the sharing @skullgiver@popplesburger.hilciferous.nl

    I've check VeilidChat for the moment indeed it is just a network framework... so no apps ready yet (unless I'm mistaken )

    The negative point is that the developer use exclusively google tech for it !! ( Dart, flutter )So why peoples that want to fight for freedom use the Sauron tool !? it baffle me...

    is Tor planned to be embedded ?

  • Could SimpleX be P2P ?

  • I've did some more digging.

    and Briar still remain better at security level !

    The big downside of SimpleX is that it's not P2P and IP correlation by watching your traffic is possible.

    SimpleX recommend to use Tor on top of it with for example Orbot. That's a good idea, but not the best to convince none-tech folks to adopt it. (it's already so hard to change peoples habit... ) Tor should be embedded.

    As soon Tor is embedded I will migrate to it. SimpleX have nice thought features and it's easy to use.

  • Thank you very much @jet@hackertalks.com & @Quexotic@beehaw.org

    The EFF article is really interesting for everyone. ( I was aware of this )

    Indeed no one should assume that his packets are not intercepted along the road. But conceive an software that on top of that, specifically route the traffic trough his server not make it better (on the opposite in my opinion)

    Even if the owner of those server do not process the data... ( This is relying on blind trust) those servers might be breached. (in addition to the systemic data recording, like in the EFF article )

    Let put it simple, is SimpleX offer on the actual Internet (can't wait the next gen, GNUnet or anything similar) a similar level of Trust & privacy than Briar ?

  • A little update.

    I've just tested simplex on Android.

    it's very well thought out ! The features make sense. UNFORTUNATELY it's not P2P ! all the messages pass by their servers :'( with Briar it's P2P.... weirdly they claim their way is better than P2P ! any comment on that ?

    In my point of view, if messages are stored somewhere it's mean the can be process[^1] !

    Cheers.

  • jami’s good but it uses turn server to verify your name

    So is it secure ? does that mean you rely on those server to be able to created an account ?
