sure there is, you can send files over HF, it may not be FAST, but once you get it into the country, you can just copy the file with a faster method (eg: usb drive), WINLINK supports attachments, so you could absolutely send these files over HF

If you're going to be using USB drives anyway, then using them to move files into the country would be faster.

More dangerous though. You'd need something like truecrypt, too.

btw, veracrypt is the name if the follow up project. truecrypt shut down over a decade ago rather abruptly, so anything labeled truecrypt today is suspect as either out of date or potential malware.

Wasn't the conspiracy theory that truecrypt got shut down because it was 'too effective', and the successor projects presumably have intentional backdoors or something?

Truecrypt was likely developed by only 1 man, Paul le roux, who likely shut it down because he was on the run for being an international drug/human smuggler/cartel member. It’s kind of a crazy story.

But either way both truecrypt and veracrypt were independently audited and no major flaws were found. Not sure when the last veracrypt audit was done.

Nah, just drop a few thousand 1GB flash drives from a plane. Load them with a tor browser, a wireguard client, and instructions on finding a remote exit. Only one copy needs to survive and it can spread very quickly and irreversibly by foot.

Yeah, this is a great approach if you're already at war with a country.

If you're not and they're still allowing your planes to fly through their airspace then this is a great way to ensure that they lock your (and your friends') planes out.

Drop them from commercial planes via the toilet?

daflip 6 days ago | parent [-]

When you flush the toilet in an airplane the contents is normally vacuumed in to a holding tank which gets emptied after the plane lands.

Then why have people died from getting hit by frozen pee icicles?

pretty sure that's never happened, it's an urban legend

Plugging in a strange USB drive?

What could go wrong.
