This guy is annoying. He's been emailing any address at Tor he can
find. I'm not responding to him any more.
Basically, he's asking for money to keep our wiki clean. He's implied
in the past that if we don't pay him, we'll be spammed ruthlessly.

Tor has a rather severe reputation problem at the moment. Given the recent
revelations around malware on the network, and the pervasiveness of
pedophilia, I think we should consider a course of action to help boost the
network's PR.
For one - while nobody is interested in acting as the police

Can't agree with this.
You can get OnionBrowser for pretty much any platform. Download and run,
end of story. I grabbed it for my iPad and within a minute I was up and
running.

Please do!
That said, you're already falling into a trap when you say all the
directories. I know the person who ran the hidden wiki -- he shut
it down

Calls such as these, to begin systematic attempts at flagging
directories and removing links, are nothing but thinly disguised
attempts at imposing censorship and control on the Tor network. Let's
be honest and call it what it is.

For what it's worth, OnionBrowser is open sourced, it is for Apple

My point was that using Tor need not be inconvenient at all.
I agree that there's a need for a hidden services directory, but I gather

OK, you're right. That's a bad idea - what about clearly labeling the pedo

And once again, please note I am in no way suggesting that *the Tor

Maybe Tor-optimized-Firefox needs a default safe browsing plugin.
Also, maybe at least some pedo, etc .onion sites would voluntarily label
themselves.
Hello, everyone. :)
First of all, I just want to give a huge thanks to everyone who's involved
with Tor. Ever since I started using it, I have felt a refreshing sense of
freedom and empowerment that I did not at all anticipate when I downloaded
the Tor Browser. I am now speaking up boldly on
