Agree, but idiot is also one that trust some web page without checking who is behind.
With Tor there is a problem, if they are effective protecting privacy then you can't know who they are, and you can't trust them, but if you know who they are, then they are not protecting even own privacy, so you don't need them.
There is no such problem. Intermediate tor nodes carrying your data can not spy on it as it's encrypted, and the code in your client even if nowhere else, is open source and so you do not have to trust any other entity. You only have to trust that if this piece of open source publicly viewable software had a backdoor in it, that it would be essentially impossible to keep someone somewhere in the world from spotting it and alerting everyone else. -- bkw -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
