Ideally Tor users should use something like the Whonix approach: two VMs are set up, a gateway for connecting to the internet and a workstation the user browses from. The gateway sets up the Tor connection, and the workstation is on a restr

If we're going to tie this to college campus censorship, a better analogy would be the tendency of many schools to ban speakers who might criticize the US foreign policy orthodoxy on Israel/Palestine. That would have a different i

This seems irrelevant as the person you are replying to is claiming that the notice is by its nature invalid. Quoting the notice they claim is invalid does nothing to prove them wrong. Addressing the content of the quote more directly, Grok
