When we did a Tor talk for the US DEA in January, one of the use cases we explained for Tor was law enforcement doing investigations without putting their families at risk. After the talk, one of the agents came up to me and explained that he was being relocated to Bogota, with his family, and yes he and they would be using Tor all the time. And then he said he was much happier going to Colombia than Mexico. "I will never set foot in Mexico, not on vacation or anything. That place scares the hell out of me." Maybe this says as much about how Bogota has changed as it does about Mexico. And of course (fortunately) we're not all DEA agents. But it was certainly a new perspective on Mexico for me. --Roger -- Too many emails?
