I'm interested in how tor has been affected and will be affected in the
coming weeks. Are there less users now that many onion sites
disappeared? More? Is there a decrease in bittorrent which I doubt. How
about the bandwidth is it 1/5 of what it was last week? etc
I'm curious if users or hidden se
What are some myths and real things to watch for when using tor?
One example may be connecting and immediately posting somewhere. Someone
can track you connecting to the network with the post. Is this real or a
myth? From my understanding only guard nodes would know if your

What happens if you have MULTIPLE servers with the same hidden service?

IP address for peer to peer (like torchat) is a risk factor although I
don't know enough to know for sure. (Maybe the already in place guards

I read about a successful attack on hidden services. The two major
