Yes there is, so long as the result does not suck. If the result sucks (significant dropped frames, spending minutes futzing with NoScript, whatever) then the user experience will be a net negative to Tor, because people will say "Tor can't do X" rather than that they were not capable of doing it. This is why (for example) I posted videos of myself streaming HD Video over Tor, to help dispel the old myths about video over Tor: https://twitter.com/AlecMuffett/status/756451264121167872 Irregardless of the political and privacy issues there are also technical > benefits to using Tor for day to day traffic. Totally. So many people are fixated on "anonymity" and completely ignore the end-to-end nature of Onion addressing, for instance. It's a fantastic enabler of high-integrity communications. -- http://dropsafe.crypticide.com/aboutalecm -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
