    Why use Tor? It’s been compromised for years now. Just use I2P. You can torrent with that too.

      Can you elaborate on how tor is screwed?

      It’s an easy proxy.

        It doesn’t do the one thing it’s meant to do.

          I mean, neither does the Web by now.

          allow region blocked people to circumvent restrictions? AFAIK it still does that.

            That’s not the sole purpose of it. The way it does it was what was important. And that method is flawed.

              People using to to circumvent location based restrictions may not care about the anonymity feature of Tor. They just want pron. At least until the fascists start arresting viewers.
