My data is already bought and sold by companies. But when government agencies do it, suddenly we only need to stop them. Stop this madness. It shouldn’t matter if it’s corporations or a government, why not stop the sale of people’s data?

    This is why people should start using Tor alongside their regular browser every day, even if it is for trivial things. Eventually it’ll be the difference between life and death for some poor bugger and the least everyone else can do is provide a bit of obfuscating cover.

        TOR was originally a DARPA project and everyone seems to forget this.

        I mean, it’s caught a ton of pedos so I can’t really be angry but anyone who thought a DARPA project wasn’t going to be massively salted with 3 letter agency tracking servers are just plain naive.

        Hell I wouldn’t be surprised if a ton of those bitcoin doublers weren’t NSA agents making some sidecash.

        You don’t need to outrun the tiger you just have to be faster than the slowest villager.
