If you control both an entry node and an exit node, the whole Tor system
is defeated. You can see which IPs are connecting to Tor, and what sites
they are visiting.

Further, just because you are using Tor to browse HTTP or other protocols,
doesn't necessarily mean you are using it for your DNS queries, unless you
thought of this in advance.

As such, while Tor is awesome, and a great way for whistleblowers to
communicate with journalists, make sure you stay grounded and level-headed.
