This sounds extremely sketchy. It's a site called 'reset the net' and their motive is to protect sites from the NSA and such. I'm calling BS because their plan sounds completely illegitimate. Check it out for yourselves here. And tell me your opinions.

What's so sketchy about it? They're just promoting security and privacy. These guys host events like this all the time.
RE: I call ʇᴉɥsllnq - Inori - 06-06-2014
It just seems kinda fishy that they want every site to use their service and spread a 'splash screen' as they say. I just think the whole thing could go horribly wrong.
RE: I call ʇᴉɥsllnq - dropzon3 - 06-07-2014
If you think its bullshit just take a look at the sites supporting it...
Google, Reddit, DuckDuckGo, Mozilla, EFF, CloudFlare and others of course.
Its not their service that they want everyone to use there are two things:
1. Educatea users to use encryption; ie all privacy pack includes several applications to achieve that.
2. Site Administrators to implement HTTPs; to this end namecheap is offering cheap but trusted certs.
The whole idea is to get a greater adoption of crypto so there is unifying support behind a single movement for that started and backed by reputable companies I don't see what the bullshit is except the attempt to spread it but think back to the blackout movements against SOPA fairly similar idea.

@dropzon3 thanks for clarifying :epic:
But could you imagine if these guys got hacked?
RE: I call ʇᴉɥsllnq - dropzon3 - 06-07-2014
Then they'd get hacked? Its encouraging you to setup your own crypto someone else's crypto breaking doesn't ruin your security. The worst case scenario is if resetthenet's domain gets defaced and someone inserts malicious javascript into the script include.

A picture of hacking into ctOS popped into my head.
