There's a discussion of Tor over at BoingBoing, where Cory Doctorow published a good article:
http://www.boingboing.net/2010/01/25/intro-to-tor-how-you.html Some of the comments are provocative: "TOR is 99% Nigerian fraud and kiddie porn. Don't take my word for it. Set up an exit node and sniff the traffic for five minutes. In my opinion TOR is a virus botnet that, rather than being spread by exploiting software vulnerabilities, is spread by exploiting vulnerabilities in the ideology of naive geeks. But it facilitates crime - the actual human exploitation kind of crime, not the victimless kind of crime - just as well as any other botnet." Perhaps some here would care to post in defence?
