it may turn out to be a trap.

Take a look at the history of TOR from Wikipedia:

History[edit]

 
 A cartogram illustrating Tor usage
The core principle of Tor, "onion routing", was developed in the mid-1990s by United States Naval Research Laboratory employees, mathematician Paul Syverson, and computer scientists Michael G. Reed and David Goldschlag, with the purpose of protecting U.S. intelligence communications online. Onion routing was further developed by DARPA in 1997.[20][21][22]

The alpha version of Tor, developed by Syverson and computer scientists Roger Dingledine and Nick Mathewson[18] and then called The Onion Routing project, or TOR project, launched on 20 September 2002.[1][23] The first public release occurred a year later.[24] On 13 August 2004, Syverson, Dingledine, and Mathewson presented "Tor: The Second-Generation Onion Router" at the 13th USENIX Security Symposium.[25] In 2004, the Naval Research Laboratory released the code for Tor under a free license, and the Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) began funding Dingledine and Mathewson to continue its development.[18]

In December 2006, Dingledine, Mathewson, and five others founded The Tor Project, a Massachusetts-based 501(c)(3) research-education nonprofit organization responsible for maintaining Tor.[26] The EFF acted as The Tor Project's fiscal sponsor in its early years, and early financial supporters of The Tor Project included the U.S. International Broadcasting Bureau, Internews, Human Rights Watch, the University of Cambridge, Google, and Netherlands-based Stichting NLnet.[27][28][29][30][31]

From this period onward, the majority of funding sources came from the U.S. government.[18]

In November 2014 there was speculation in the aftermath of Operation Onymous that a Tor weakness had been exploited. A representative of Europol was secretive about the method used, saying: "This is something we want to keep for ourselves. The way we do this, we can’t share with the whole world, because we want to do it again and again and again."[32] A BBC source cited a "technical breakthrough"[33] that allowed the tracking of the physical location of servers, and the number of sites that police initially claimed to have infiltrated led to speculation that a weakness in the Tor network had been exploited. This possibility was downplayed by Andrew Lewman, a representative of the not-for-profit Tor project, suggesting that execution of more traditional police work was more likely.[34][35] However, in November 2015 court documents on the matter[36] generated serious ethical security research[37] as well as Fourth Amendment concerns.[38]

In December 2015, The Tor Project announced that it had hired Shari Steele as its new executive director.[39] Steele had previously led the Electronic Frontier Foundation for 15 years, and in 2004 spearheaded EFF's decision to fund Tor's early development. One of her key stated aims is to make Tor more user-friendly in order to bring wider access to anonymous web browsing.[40]

In July 2016 the complete board of the Tor Project resigned, and announced a new board, made up of Matt Blaze, Cindy Cohn, Gabriella Coleman, Linus Nordberg, Megan Price, and

......  how to beat the system. Seems kind of foolish to me. Not that I do anything illegal here......... but....... it might be smart to consider .......

Now, I'm going to spend some time with a beautiful mental health consultant that I haven't seen for a couple of long months.

Have fun!

There have been a few instances of nodes being added to the TOR network at an extremely abnormal rate, and it's estimated that the government runs the majority of TOR nodes. This is why you absolutely have to use a VPN to connect to TOR if you expect any sort of privacy. Also, TOR activity is very, very obvious to your ISP and therefore puts a target on your ass.

If you're using TOR you better be dotting your i's and crossing your t's.

 
A server behind a .onion address is still a single point of failure/compromise and a very easy target for LE (ask DPR about that one, you'll have to write him a letter because he's in prison).

What we need is something that is not only encrypted and anonymous, but also decentralized. Something like this: https://bitcoinexchangeguide.com/pinkdate-pdp-ico/

Pinkdate might not be the go-to understand, but the idea of communicating and transacting isn't an exotic idea and we'll eventually have to end up on a blockchain based solution if the current trend of legislation continues.

I know I certainly don't want to be down there with the chi-mo's, traffickers, arms dealers, and the rest of the scum that frequent the Dark Web. Please do not encourage the ladies to go into treacherous waters. Just switch to foreign everything.

is interested in agencies and clients like us.. not the girls.. They are the "victims". If they bust the girls.. it ruins the whole thing about trafficking..
