Errata: sorry I went back and checked and I believe they also required some proof of incorporation. My apologies for the incorrect cynicism. :(
Is the proof of incorporation not presented on physical paper? Seems easy to fake.

Can you CNAME with onion domains? For example onion.nytimes.com CNAME nytimes3xbfgragh.onion Edit to clarify - more a technical pondering than a solution to anything
.onion addresses aren't resolved using the DNS system. So... no? I guess in theory a browser _could_ support something like that, but it'd be pretty unusual. I also think the idea of relying on DNS to resolve a hidden service would defeat a lot of the privacy and security guarantees associated with those services, so I don't think any browser serious about security would implement something like that.

I don't think he would disagree they are pro-establishment. He'd love them to be taken down though there is no way he could make this happen.
I think it's more that he'd prefer that the media didn't cite "unverified" dossiers that they sourced from Buzzfeed [0], which were produced by a source with ties to the DNC [1][2].

A significant portion of the dossier has been corroborated so far.
The GOP funded it originally.
The FBI funded it after.
In either case, the NYT loves Trump. Their "feud" is for show only. Trump is the establishment.

Would it make any sense to use something like tor.nytimes.com to redirect to their hidden service on the other hand? To allow people to be sure they're hitting the correct endpoint on Tor. If you're on TOR you typically have access to the rest of the internet, at least depending on setup.

#147Ah, so disagreement with an administration is what will make everyone eventually to TOR Nothing to hide except when the wrong guy gets in power then you feel naked
Do you _really_ think the NYT does this out of some specific fear? And if yes, does their adoption of https in 2014[0]\ then imply that they were equally suspicious of the previous administration? [0]: https://open.blogs.nytimes.com/2014/11/13/embracing-https/

LOL. A link to the Washington Times! Good job. A significant portion of the dossier has been corroborated so far. The GOP funded it originally. The FBI funded it after. In either case, the NYT loves Trump. Their "feud" is for show only. Trump is the establishment.

^ This. Remember, Silk Road was finally found and taken down because Ross Ulbrich messed up his OpSec on a Stack Overflow question.
Thats really interesting, does anyone have a link to an explanation about this?
Here’s a Reddit discussion: https://www.reddit.com/r/webdev/comments/1nln17/the_stackove...
Basically, he posted to stack Overflow using his own name and email address with code that was Silk Road was using. He quickly changed his username, but it was too late.
