Tor - The Yin or the Yang?

Posted by Zonk on from the watch-the-shadows dept.

An anonymous reader writes "Whitedust is running a interesting article on Tor, The Onion Router project sponsored by the EFF. Tor aims to offer anonymous internet use. Once sponsored by the Naval Research Lab with support from DARPA, it is now managed by The Free Haven Project. Although Tor claims to improve safety and security, the article goes into detail on how Tor can be used as a anonymous attack platform."

    I just want to point out that this is my 1000th post.

    I want to thank all of you for your support. Especially the Republicans, for being such easy targets as you drag our Country down the sewer.

    Some day I may get arrested for sedition and dragged off to the camps, and on that day I will definately regret not using Tor.

    Take care!

    In response to your .sig: What about those of us who realise that a .45 is better for stopping someone on PCP than a .22, but a .22 is better for a Mob-Style, back of the head, execution?

    Not that I've ever done either of those. Oh, no.
