" I wish I could convince myself that you’re nuts and this is all just wild conspiracy theory..."
I feel this every day. I have begged here for people to please, please prove I'm wrong. No one even tried.
I've been researching Tor, and perhaps I2P would be preferable given what I've learned. Better both TBQH, because more ports in storms gives more options, and I've read some opinions that Tor is more controlled by spooks than is understood.
I haven't read this yet, but just the description gives me pause.
"A mysterious threat actor, tracked as KAX17, has been running thousands of malicious Tor relays in entry, middle, and exit positions on the Tor network since 2017. Has been operating hundreds of servers on a daily basis, with some still active."
We need more and better options, and we need them as soon as possible.
