So there likely is truth to that story going around. <br /> <br />SiGraybeardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00280583031339062059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592992209402300549.post-58170118078166363372014-05-18T22:04:00.226-04:002014-05-18T22:04:00.226-04:00IIRC using Tor actually makes your communications ...IIRC using Tor actually makes your communications *more* likely to be snooped on, because spies like to run Tor exit nodes and watch all the interesting unencrypted traffic that people are foolish enough to send through the network. Tor provides layers of anonymity, but you need something *additional* if you also want privacy.roystgnrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01462833587905117761noreply@blogger.com
