There's way too much noise in this measurement for it to be seriously meaningful, unless ownership of tor was itself a crime.

- jonfw 6y agoMaybe in the west that'd be true- since we can freely trade information over the public internet, TOR doesn't have much utility. Let's say you're in a more totalitarian government that censors more information- TOR might look like a practical solution there, and might have people using it for more practical purposes.

- stjohnswarts 6y agoHe's right, it is a pretty big if, since storage space and compute power are basically free for NSA/CIA (and they have shown they don't care about privacy laws or the 4th amendment) you can safely assume all your traffic and data is stored away somewhere for future usage against you. If you're in Europe you are probably a bit safer.
- bzb5 6y agoThere are many things you can’t post online because you’d get in trouble.
- bakuninsbart 6y agoYes, who would dare use something like a VPN in a totalitarian country like China?
