Because if you create 3000 TOR relays in an hour it's easy for everyone to notice them and not use them.

- deanclatworthy 12y agoTrue. But if you do it over a long period... TOR has been around a while now. How can you possibly vet all owners? Surely most relay owners would prefer to remain anonymous.
- onewaystreet 12y agoYes, I'm sure there are relays being run by the NSA and other governments. But people monitor the creation of new relays an attempt to determine who is running them. It's not a simple task to fool everyone.
- semi-extrinsic 12y agoSince a large part of initial Tor development was funded by the US Navy and then DARPA, I think it's a safe bet that the NSA et al. have been doing this ever since the first public release.
