What is happening to this world? The Government and it's so-called agencies vested with protecting America and its allies are treating everyone like criminals, privately harvesting our information via any means possible.
They don't even have to hide it any more. They can admit things like this and nobody can do anything about it. We've passed the point of being able to defend ourselves against actions like this. Every step we take to protect our privacy, the Government is presumably two-steps ahead.
We just can't win...
- anigbrowl 13y agoPff. That's like saying the government is spying on you because you saw a police officer look at you when you walked past a police car. Personally, I am just fine with the FBI harvesting the details of anyone who visits a CP site. So this puts strain on the network and causes loss of functionality for non-illegal uses of Tor - inconvenient, but then it's also inconvenient when you can't park because a police car, fire truck, or ambulance is taking up the space you hoped to park in. On a scale of 1 to 10, the harm suffered by non-criminal Tor users during this sting operation looks to me to be about a 1 or a 2.
