What? You mean you can set your vpn exit node to somewhere you don't live? Why would you do that? And I've never gotten a captcha from our archive site? That'd be annoying as shit. Something is wrong with your computer totes.

Many reasons to change country. I always set mine to an EU country when browsing news sites, because it is legally required to pop up a cookie and tracking prompt that let's you deny the website from selling your info to third parties. If set to US unless you are using Brave with everything set to Strict, automatically floods cookies, fingerprints you, sells the info to dozens or hundreds of ad and data collection/aggregation companies as soon as the page opens.
To get started with IPFS, try installing ipfs-desktop:
ipns://docs.ipfs.io/install/ipfs-desktop/
If you aren't familiar with IPFS, I think it is time for you to take a look, experiment, and report your findings.
If you are running IPFS, your IP does become public, so it is best to run it in a container, like a Virtual Machine, for example. Your IPFS node can also be identified to an extent by which files it is publishing. IPFS will also use some of your bandwidth, as other nodes that want the files your are pinning (publishing, in IPFS terms) will retrieve them from you or others closer on the network. You might resort to using a pinning service to ensure the files you value are online even if you are offline. They usually allow you 1GB or so of storage gratis.
Despite these drawbacks, there are lots of great reasons to use IPFS. You are sure to retrieve an unmodified document, because files are listed by the hash of their content. The IPFS network forms a CDN (Content Delivery Network) that is comprised of everybody who values the content that is being shared, e.g. a funny meme. For text, the amount of storage space is minimal, even for large pastes. There are image sharing services for IPFS too, e.g. Textile. https://imageserver.link/
If you have questions about IPFS, I will be very happy to try and answer them. Also, Voat should be on Aether, on grounds of its superior technical merit:
"Is not a website archival solution." This is factually incorrect. IPFS can be used to easily archive an image, web-page or entire website. One way to accomplish this is by using ipfs-companion in a web-browser. I hope you take a look: ipns://docs.ipfs.io/install/ipfs-companion/ I didn't suggest it initially, as it can sometimes make browsing slower and people might not understand why.
"That's not how that works." You don't need to isolate ipfs-desktop in a container, but the protocol wasn't designed with privacy as a primary goal. (One main goal was a system that would be usable during colonization of Mars.)
Using somebody else's http site for archiving is foolish, as one wouldn't know who controlled the site, and if the site is taken offline, the content stored there and published with http addresses will be lost.
If people instead publish using an IPFS CID (Content Identification) hash, it won't matter if a node is taken offline. IPFS publishes what something is rather than where it is, so anybody with the file would be able to serve it. Lets look at an example so people can understand this important distinction. Here is an image hosted on IPFS:
You can see from the link that it is provided over http, if you look at the first part of the link: https://ipfs.io/ipfs/
If you follow the full link, you will be visiting the file via http. If that gateway (ipfs.io) goes down, people will no longer be able to view that file there. However, instead of using http to retrieve the file, you could use IPFS, just by using its CID, which is the last part of the URL, beginning with Qm:
QmXK95Eii1o9gFfR8SzoePCydyZf3THRnVUDRuGWB6fNex
You should be able to retrieve that file using e.g. ipfs-desktop. Even if the http isn't working, as long as somebody is pinning that file on IPFS, you will be able to retrieve that file unadulterated. You can do the same thing with a folder for a good webpage or website.
For use cases such as ours, running ipfs-desktop in a container has been suggested by a leading member of the development team. Also, you falsely claim that IPFS is not an archive solution. One of IPFS's specific design goals was for situations that might be encountered on Mars, where nodes or links may be lost and you need data availability despite this.
FFS, are you still going on about this? Fine, let me spell it out for you... it doesn't matter if you put it in a VM, a specialized computer that's only used for that, docker, or any fucking-thing-else. None of those masks your IP. JFC.
You're a complete fucking retard. The conversation was always about IP address and you wanna go on about some other stupid shit like it's relevant. Fuck off.
Here is an example where I highlighted the text in the above post, and archived it using ipfs-companion. Right below is the IPFS CID for the archived text:
QmWEzMawsPPZExx9p5mU4Xqoy32NgzF5qnR2XH3wf4qzUD
You ought to be able to reach that archive using e.g. ipfs-desktop and see the text.
I've been trying to get this across to people since back on Voat 1.0.
1. It's a 'free' service, with no apparent monetization mechanism. 2. It's marketed heavily to political dissidents. 3. It funnels traffic through a single point, making it easier to track. 4. It blocks anonymous traffic, forcing users to identify themselves by IP or via Google cookies.
Someone is paying to run this thing. And it should be obvious what for, given the above.
I am at the point now where I really don't give a fuck about monitoring anymore and I work cybersecurity as my day job. I have a VPN and location changers just to get around geoblocks on content and downloading the occasional movie.
Anything I don't want those fuckers to know about doesn't hit this PC. Everyone needs an air gapped PC.
OP You're too fucking stupid to be on the internets. I am getting tired of this boomer tier faggto bullshit. The fact you can't even run an experiment fully on your own is nigger level shit.
Worry less about the jooos and more about breathing. In and Out. Say it with me. Good air in, bad air out.
1. He literally said he ran the experiment himself and suggested you also do it if you didn’t believe him. 2. You’re using buzzwords only paid shills have ever used. Eat shit.
I think there was news how they were compromised by Isreali companies some time ago. It was quite obvious at the time.
Israeli companies also own the big VPN companies like Nord VPN, which you shouldn't give money too. Only small independent ones, if you must.
" all I know is that a lot of those VPN services, particularly the big ones like NORDVPN are jew controlled. You can see the thought process of how they named that, "shalom, what shall we call out honeypot to fool the goy? NORDvpn, that sounds white and stuff".
Without a VPN you have to trust your ISP. With a VPN, you have to trust your VPN. How do we know which VPN provider is a honeypot and which is not? Do you live in a country with anti-anti-semitism laws or something?
Jesus, PIA has been kiked for years. Going purely on technical functionality, not trust, https://restoreprivacy.com/vpn/best/ I didn't know Nord was kiked, but Expressvpnd definitely is, and Proton probably is.

1. highlight text
2. right-click
3. click "Import selected text to IPFS"
4. Click Pin on IPFS
5. Post the IPFS CID wherever you like
You are now archiving and serving the content. It is that simple.
If you wanted to import the whole page, just right-click the page without highlighting text, and then select "Import Page"
