Re: Deluge users everywhere...Deluge 0.5.8RC1 Released!

This has potential but I also agree that it should be a Plugin and thus should disappear when not enabled ... even the display of a Browser UI is still bloat if the user intended to switch it off. I see where qcompson is coming from when he says that in the long run this will bring more problems then answers to Deluge. Anonymous Browsing is legal, and thus so far has no issue ... but Proxy FileSharing which I mentioned earlier:
In terms of use, I see this as a premature feature ... great on paper but right now it doesn't have enough traction to be widely accepted as people would rather have unsecure but fast loading pages rather then a slower but anonymous browsing ... the trade off isn't soo great right now. When Proxy Torrents become capable then this will difinately see traction ... but it'll cost alot to even implement in a small scale let alone making it go global
. I'll use this here and there but not everyday ... maybe weeks in between the last usage, as I presume most would aswell.
Anyways good stuff, keep them coming and everyone have a happy holiday.
is asking for legal problems ... doesn't mean it can't be done (suggest you colocate with the Pirate Bay servers on this). So markybob I hope you planned that legal grey zone out for the future. Maybe we can add a multi-tab feature to the browser, or is the Proxy only capable of maintaining 1 connection at a time?markybob wrote:not *yet*. please dont even try. we're starting at step one...we'll get to step 2 when/if we manage.MoJo wrote:Can the Proxy for the Browser be also used with Torrents downloading? If so it can be a new way to thwart those ISP's like Rogers that circumvent the use of Protocol Encryption.it is in the plans, though, so stick with us and spread the word!
