Dear [@seanlynch](https://github.com/seanlynch) you are belligerent. I am in 
fact not saying that Tor or I2p aren't worth using. Come off your platitude for 
a few minutes and think about people who may be in a more high risk situation 
than yourself. For those people Tor isn't good enough because their adversary 
may well be the NSA and the FBI and GCHQ and so on. I am welcome to put forth 
my efforts into mix networks but not because you say so speaking from a place 
of belligerence. I am a fan of Tor and I do not go around telling people they 
can't have any protection. Your delusional caricature of myself is offensive 
and alarming. Check yourself before you wreck yourself."""

:P~

TL;DR: for the IPFS Tor support issue:

IPFS wants a security audit before merging Tor support. Tor support was 
volunteer effort - no paid security review possible. Thus - IPFS does not 
support Tor :/
