Re: [Trisquel-users] proper/practical use of tor

[gnuser]

Let's keep in mind that using Tor for bittorrent for example is just plainly  
stupid, as it will provide little if any anonimity.
I agree with everything else that has been said, Tor needs to be a tool used  
for everyday browser, so that the "sensitive browsing" done by activists and  
such becomes "hidden" and "obfuscated" in the middle of it. However, that  
requires the Tor network to grow (running relays and funding projects like  
torservers.net). Also, it is important to notice the work that needs to be  
done in the Tor software itself (the work done to improve scalability really  
paid off lol otherwise we would be crushed by the botnet thing), because the  
better the Tor network is handled by the software the less chances are that  
an attack might bring it down. Good thing they are doing their work on it ;)  
just check their latest blog update.
