• Any tilde with npm available?

    It's been an interesting experiment. I'm trying to see if it is possible
    to contribute an NPM module anonymously.

    Everything is done, but when I do the "torsocks npm publish" npm kicks
    back a permission denied:

    403 403 Forbidden - PUT https://registry.npmjs.org/docset-server

    I think I tracked it down to a cloudflare captcha page, because I'm
    using Tor it thinks I'm some kind of criminal I guess.

    Wondering if there is some place anonymous, with a shell, that has
    node installed so that I can publish this thing? (or if someone else
    who has access to such a shell could publish it) I've never published
    anything for node before, so there could be something I'm missing?

    In order to remain true to the experiment, it shouldn't be published
    from a residential connection that can be directly connected to an
    individual, nor a shell account that was paid for with any identifying information. The whole point was to see if it could be done anonymously.

    The module is here if anyone is curious:
    https://tildegit.org/hoper/docset-server
    (it's a tool for viewing docset collections offline)

    Isn't npm installed on ~black?
