Tor uses anonymous logins on XMPP for live and one-time user support
sessions. We could ask them for tricks or if we can use it for testing
maybe.

> Tor uses anonymous logins on XMPP for live and one-time user support sessions. We could ask them for tricks or if we can use it for testing maybe.

I suggest you let the people who work on Feature #11307 and Feature #11317 know, as it’s outside of the scope of what I committed to do on this ticket.

@sajolida Is there any documentation about what kind of anonymous accounts they use? Or a person one could ask questions?

sajolida: please review the doc changes on this branch.

Then, please pass it to anonym who will review the code changes.

Thanks!

(The situation on #tails is really concerning, I’m told, so I would like to speed up this migration a bit.)

sajolida, note that I already merged this branch (by mistake, due to Bug #10443).

fyi, these are the most important workflows for managing an xmpp channel:

to make a jid silent, but jid can still read whats happening:

/role visitor jid


the role is lost on rejoion

to kick a nick

/kick jid


after a kick, the jid can rejoin

to ban a nick

/ban jid reason


this makes a jid an outcast; all outcasts can be listed by using:

/affiliate outcast


ro remove affiliation:

/affiliate none jid
