Anonymous Gopher Update 10/31/23 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Want to have a completely anonymous gopher hole? Connect via ssh to the Red Consensus: ssh guest@consensus.circumlunar.space Previously, your IP was logged by the system's rsyslog server... but that is no longer the case. At the behest of a friend, who noted that people who care about anonymity *care about log files*, I took a few minutes and updated the rsyslog.conf, filtering out messages relating to the redcon user. Now, no IP is recorded on connect or disconnect, nor is anything recorded in the logs at all during the course of the session. This change only impacts the redcon user. All other hacking attempts are logged (I know because they were streaming by as I was testing). This, of course, doesn't matter at all, because I'm not watching the logs anyway. If you're in the mood to attempt to hack in, knock yourself out (that's part of the fun of placing a system on the internet). Visit the Red Consensus on gopher[1] if you want to know more.
