Each case is a request to find the leaks in photos, emails and files; why we made it and how we hope it is used. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/10/quarterly-report-2026-q3/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/10/quarterly-report-2026-q3/ Sun, 11 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000 New Taiwan's Tor relays fell from 13 to 11 in Q3 2026, 8 of them on HiNet, and mobile networks got 4% of OONI measurements. Monitoring now covers more of Asia. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/10/community-pages-moved/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/10/community-pages-moved/ Fri, 09 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Update About, Join, Projects, Services, Events and Updates moved to the anoni.net top level. Old addresses redirect automatically, on the onion service too. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/10/2026-anoni-net-news-launch/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/10/2026-anoni-net-news-launch/ Wed, 07 Oct 2026 00:00:00 +0000 New anoni.net/news is a daily news site from anoni.net on privacy, anonymity networks and censorship, read from a technology and open-source angle with comparisons across Asia, published in three languages and followed up over time. Why we started it, how stories are chosen and checked, the categories, Same Day, Years Apart, and how to subscribe. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/09/asian-diceware/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/09/asian-diceware/ Wed, 02 Sep 2026 00:00:00 +0000 New The community built asian-diceware, a 7,776-word English passphrase wordlist that drops in for the EFF Large Wordlist and pins 292 dictionary-attested Asian loanwords. This post is about how the words were picked. The breakdown by source language is not what the people who built it expected: 102 from Japanese and 91 from South Asian languages, against 16 from Mandarin and exactly one from Hokkien. It also covers the two hard limits on word choice, why the share stops at 292 instead of rounding up to a tidy percentage, and how the build pipeline refuses to silently drop a pinned word. Code is MIT, the wordlist is CC-BY-4.0, and there is an A5 booklet PDF we also hand out at events. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/08/2026-gg2026-printed-wrapper/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/08/2026-gg2026-printed-wrapper/ Fri, 28 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Event A print-only zine, 150 copies, handed out at Global Gathering 2026 in Estoril. This is the design record behind it: the first cover that took the wrong angle, the run where Taiwan vanished from the map, and the constraints a copy shop imposed on the whole visual direction. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/08/2026-anoni-net-global-gathering/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/08/2026-anoni-net-global-gathering/ Thu, 20 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Event Global Gathering 2026 runs from 4 to 6 September in Estoril, Portugal, hosted by Team CommUNITY. We have a booth on 6 September, 13:00 to 15:00 WEST, at Booth 6, titled anoni.net Hub: Sinophone Asia-Pacific Networked Freedom. This is our first Global Gathering. We want to meet technologists building anonymity networks and circumvention tools, and others working across Asia. The booth takes anonymous payment as its topic, a subject no session on the agenda covers, and collects real situations from the people who have run into it. Cofacts, another team from Taiwan, has Booth 10 in the same slot. This post covers the sessions on the agenda that overlap with our work, the booths we plan to visit and what we want to ask each of them, how to find us before our own slot, and how to take part without travelling. We also bring the observation record from 30 minutes of mobile throttling in northern Taiwan on 13 August, as a case others can compare against. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/08/tianjian-digital-privacy/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/08/tianjian-digital-privacy/ Wed, 19 Aug 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Event Tian Jian's two-session series on digital security and privacy for journalists.

No Tor or privacy-tech background needed, there is an online briefing beforehand, and you are free to sit in on talks when you are off shift. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/07/coscup-2026-community-track/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/07/coscup-2026-community-track/ Mon, 13 Jul 2026 00:00:00 +0000 Event The Anonymity Networks Community runs a two-day track at COSCUP 2026 (Aug 8–9, NTUST, Taipei): Tor, Tails, OONI, browser tracking, campus Tor nodes, data-privacy rights, a privacy guide, and anonymous payments, with a session co-organized with ETHTaipei. COSCUP is free with no registration, so you can walk in and attend anonymously. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/iran-blackout-webtunnel/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/iran-blackout-webtunnel/ Thu, 28 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 After Iran's 80-plus-day blackout ended, traffic surged through the Tor WebTunnel bridge our community operates. WebTunnel disguises Tor traffic as ordinary HTTPS, making it the hardest bridge to block in heavily censored places. Anywhere with a free, well-connected link is a good place to host one. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/2026-cryptpad-zh-hant/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/2026-cryptpad-zh-hant/ Mon, 25 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 New Two and a half years of upstream community work landed in CryptPad 2026.5.0 (2026/05/13): zh_Hant (Traditional Chinese) is now a built-in locale, zh_Hans was upgraded alongside it, and a new locale alias system migrates older zh_CN / zh_TW settings without surprise. The community-hosted cryptpad.anoni.net is upgraded; readers in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, and across the diaspora can now use one of the few end-to-end encrypted collaboration suites entirely in their own script. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/report-madlink/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/report-madlink/ Sat, 23 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 New InterSecLab's MADLink report found that 1,708 CSA-7400 appliances shipped by ADLINK in 2019 and 2020 formed the hardware base of Geedge's first-generation firewall platform. The community's Traditional Chinese translation is on the docs site, with a separate record of how Taiwan responded. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/2026-campus-tor-relay-template-kit/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/2026-campus-tor-relay-template-kit/ Thu, 21 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 New NZ has turned the NTNU campus Tor Relay rollout — proposal, outreach emails, deployment setup, FAQ — into a CC-BY 4.0 template kit other universities can adapt. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/madlink-editorial-2026-05/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/madlink-editorial-2026-05/ Wed, 20 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 How Taiwan's media, legislature and regulators responded after the MADLink report named the listed Taiwanese company ADLINK, recorded as a snapshot on 2026-05-20, with our verification work and the public sources worth watching. https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/2026-onionoo-mcp-public/ https://anoni.net/en/updates/2026/05/2026-onionoo-mcp-public/ Tue, 19 May 2026 00:00:00 +0000 New The community's onionoo-fastapi service is now public at onionoo.anoni.net.
