The big one, as I see it (quoting from https://www.torproject.org/ ):
"Activists use Tor to anonymously report abuses from danger zones.
Whistleblowers use Tor to safely report on corruption."  Iran, Burma,
and China come up a lot in these discussions.  Also, sometimes editors
want to avoid surveillance from an ISP or employer.

https://www.torproject.org/about/torusers.html.en has more use cases for
Tor use generally.
