t3st3rEh, interesting, Maemo forums claims I'm bot. That's what I get for using Tor? oO07:53
KotCzarnylots of bots use tor07:54
t3st3rPretty much like saying "many criminals eat same food like you". I can't deny it.07:55
KotCzarnynope, not the same07:55
KotCzarnytor is used by specific types of people07:55
KotCzarnysome for good reasons, but a lot for bad reasons07:56
t3st3rFor me it looks privacy-unfriendly. Eh, been (and still is) maemo user. And I'd say it rather sad to be locked out like that07:56
KotCzarnytor is a tool07:56
t3st3r<KotCzarny> tor is a tool <- Yes, and I also have some knives on kitchen, even if I dont use them to kill...07:57
KotCzarnyyup07:57
KotCzarnybut 'balaclava' is the better analogy07:57
KotCzarnysome use it for skiing etc, but you dont normally wear it for shopping07:58
KotCzarnyif you wear balaclava in shop, its suspect behavior07:58
t3st3rHmm, I thought it's innocent unless proven guilty but seems these days it's more fun to shot suspect 1st, investigate later :\07:59
t3st3rWell, forum suggested me to come here. Was it in vain or something?07:59
KotCzarnymost likely tor ips wont get excluded08:00
KotCzarnybut you can wait for an answer from someone else08:01
t3st3rHmm are you staff? I somehow remember your name from ages of the past.08:01
KotCzarnynope, just a regular user08:02
t3st3rAhh okay. Maemo been best thing I've used ever. So it's kinda sad to be banned out of forums. But, seems, I have to live with it.08:05
KotCzarnyyou can always set up some proxy and use it08:05
KotCzarnyjust for t.m.o08:05
t3st3rThat08:06
t3st3rThat's possible. But brings some questions on overall privacy policy anyway.08:07
KotCzarnyprivacy policy is 'there is a bot problem, and not enough manpower, so here's that'08:07
KotCzarnyand if you look closely, there is nothing invading your privacy on tmo08:09
KotCzarnyno google, no doubleclick, no nothing08:09
t3st3rI don't even see it - as the only thing forum is willing to show is... Sorry, if you aren't a bad bot, it seems that you are using an IP address or a proxy that is listed in the forum anti spam blacklist.08:11
t3st3rFeel free to contact our staff on irc freenode #maemo channel.08:11
KotCzarnyyup08:11
brolin_empeyGoogle acquired DoubleClick in 2007.08:46
t3st3rSo two evils became one.08:54
