The legal terms seem pretty evil for what this is. I'll allow that evil may not be the intent. Perhaps you just asked a lawyer for the most bulletproof terms possible, but what you've end up with is a very one sided set of terms.

I've found that notebooks are great for ad hoc reporting and analysis scripts. Once you have your quick and dirty script, it is trivial to convert to a notebook and you get a lot for little. Being able to change one cell and rerun just

I wouldn't recommend using Tor with anything other than Tor browser because there are so many browser features that will expose you now. If you don't need the Tor browser protections, you probably don't need Tor either.
