As I have posted, in his newsreader - Agent -, he can even killfile "JohnDoe" and choose as Action "Ignore Thread" to killfile JohnDoe and any and all responses to JohnDoe's threads once and for all, i.e. a one time action, instead of having to kill every new thread which JohnDoe creates. And Thunderbird can do the same. Well, it can ignore the entire thread or just the subthread (which I prefer when I use that action). Can Thunderbird do such an action *once and for all* (like Agent can)? I.e. one can tell Agent to killfile "JohnDoe" and choose as Action "Ignore Thread". After that, you do not see any *new*/future threads that "JohnDoe" starts, nor any responses in those new threads. (And of course you don't see any current/old threads either.) Can Thunderbird do *that*, i.e. set-and-forget? Because Ken had 'threatened' to killfile people who respond to trolls, I even morphed to post my advice/solution to him, but even that was not acknowledged/rejected, nor - apparently - used. Well, I/we tried. Can do no more. I haven't bothered to morph. If he doesn't want to read me, that's his prerogative. To be clear, I only morphed to inform him of the Agent solution. He didn't respond, so I went back to my normal name. |

Can Thunderbird do *that*, i.e. set-and-forget? It acts on new posts, but you can manually run the filter on the folder, which will apply to filter on old posts. The filter will be there till you delete it. By default, a filter only acts on a single folder, but there is a trick to create a filter on the account instead, and then it applies to all folders. Mind, the filter would act not only on the threads he starts, but also on those he replies to - which is why I'd kill subthreads, not threads. Because Ken had 'threatened' to killfile people who respond to trolls, I even morphed to post my advice/solution to him, but even that was not acknowledged/rejected, nor - apparently - used.

So if you are naughty they can give that info to the authorities and eventually find you. unless it's obfuscated. There was a high profile case in the USA, some whistle blower, that used TOR to connect somewhere and post information. But once he connected without TOR, so they investigated that IP and found him. if that's the case i'm thinking of, he wasn't found by tracking his ip, but rather that he made a threat to a school and there was a single tor connection from that school at the same time as the threat was made. it doesn't take a lot to figure out that those were related. they knocked on his door and he confessed. No, it was a different case. Someone high in the military. -- Cheers, Carlos. |

No, it was a different case. Someone high in the military. link it. Do your own research, it is a known case :-D you made the claim. Example, Chelsea Manning https://www.theguardian.com/commenti...anning-wikilea ks-security But the reason Manning is now in military detention, awaiting court martial, perhaps ultimately lies in a smaller action still, an error thousands of email users make daily: choosing "cc" rather than "bcc". In a plea for donations sent in 2009, that simple error led Julian Assange to inadvertently reveal the identities of WikiLeaks' first 58 supporters to each other. One, ex-hacker Adrian Lamo, decided to use this as an opportunity to test the whistleblowing site's honesty * and "leaked" the email list to WikiLeaks. .... Lamo turned over the chatlogs to US authorities that wasn't tracing ip addresses. https://blogs.cornell.edu/newmediaandsociety2015bhv6/2015/04/20/infrastructure-of-manning-leak/ that doesn't say anything about how. |

I'm starting a Go Fund Me page to buy him all of the Bob Ross "Joy of Painting" DVD's and books. Then a. h. can spend his time painting "happy little trees". (For anyone who doesn't know Bob Ross, he had a 'how to paint' program on PBS. In a half-hour show, he taught people how to paint a 'masterpiece', with "happy little trees" wherever you wanted, because "it's your world, and you should paint what makes you happy".)
