What a histrionic, over-emotional mess these people are. With personalities like that, it's a wonder any meaningful work on Tor gets done.

- ethbro 10y agoAgreed on one hand. But on the other hand, these are literally (as noted in the log) people who have physical security concerns travelling to a large part of the world if their identities are public. Only paranoia if your laptop doesn't get seized at customs every time you fly, etc etc.
- ocdtrekkie 10y agoPeople are likely to act much differently when facing an "existential threat". Certainly for the guy worried this could get his family killed, but even just for people who've invested years of work into the Tor project, and think this could lead to it's downfall. For something like Tor, userbase has a particularly key role in maintaining the project. This is likely something to do with the instinctual "fight or flight" response. I think you can see people who chose each in this chat log.
