    If enough people set endpoints, then the feds will own a fewer proportion of the total. AKA: we have to be the change we want to see in the world.

      TOR is not to be trusted. Everyone else has been working on strengthening their security while TOR has been caught numerous times weakening theirs.

      Use i2P and sneakernet. Fuck tor.

        Oh i2P is definitively a better option where you can have it. However, Tor is somewhat more approachable as of current: we have for example Tor Browser for the masses, whereas I at least haven’t heard of any sort of “I2P Browser” at least for Firefox. Of the three options, Tor is the only one I know that is “portable” (you don’t need to be able to make admin-level network changes to use it).

      Yeah but even if you could get it down to like 50% why would anyone want to take that risk? Idk I might be misunderstanding something about how TOR works but it seems no more anonymous than the clearweb from what I’ve heard.

        I’m not sure you are fully aware of the Tor threat model. The exit node is not supposed to be specifically trusted.
