    Just the simple fact that Tor was started with a bunch of US intelligence money is cause for concern.

      The only thing scarier than the fact that the government may be listening in is the fact that any entity can listen in.

      Keep in mine not everyone uses TOR to evade the three letter agencies. I’m a TOR relay operator and the main reason I’m running it is to give people in oppressive regimes a better chance at exchanging free information. To these people getting spied on by western intelligence agencies is probably the lesser evil compared to their own tinpot dictatorship governments.
