Launching Anonymous Attacks Using the Tor Network

Posted by Hemos on from the wait-you-mean-people-aren't-all-nice dept.

Looks like the flip side of the Tor project is that it allows anyone to launch network scans and exploits anonymously. Great, just what we need now."

    Congratulations on missing the point. Bonus points for stating that I'm accusing O'Reilly of astroturfing (do you work hard at being so obtuse, or does it come naturally?)

    Either you are wilfully pretending to be stupid, or you really are that dumb. Either way, I can't help you. Goodbye.
