Activities

In February 2018 Levine has released e-mail communication received through FOIA dating back to 2007 from Tor founder Roger Dingledine to his contacts at the Broadcasting Board of Governors about a technical problem concerning TLS connections which made Tor traffic stand out from all the rest and made it easy to fingerprint and single out people who were using Tor from the background data noise of the internet.[1] According to Levine it took years for the Torproject to communicate the problem through their official channels.
