Only via a centralized relay, giving up the other nice properties.
> TOR is sensitive to DDoS attack, IPFS; it is not.
To DDoS a ToR website you'd need to overload the server(s) the website owner set up. To DDoS IPFS you'd need to overload the whole network. Harder, but not impossible. See [1].
> Ipfs is permanent web.
Sort of, but you have to address pinning.
> Law enforcement can access the onion sites in the same way as others ... A cop in undercover can appear like an ordinary citizen and purchase dope from a dealer
Yes. Solving this would require implementing an evil bit[2]. I don't think IPFS has solved that problem?
