The signature check can be a double layer of security but generally across .onions does make it all the better in all aspects. Yes using a hidden service does increase overall network load with the additional circuit length, but afaik using an onion will avoid exits unless neccersary (please correct if I am wrong on this) and really therefore only use the under-utilised smaller middle relays. I already added a number of onions for my services which are accessible and so pushing for others to do the same would be welcome company. Renaming hidden services is all well and great, but so long as illegal services are notorious with no legal services to challenge that misconception, we're just beating around the bush. Alec has done a great job with Facebook and so has Blockchain, but such a handful of people like ourselves won't change much. Anyone with contacts within Twitter or heck, even Disconnect/StartPage, would be great to patch them through to here. In the mean time, I shall start petitioning a few other outlets to add a hidden service to their available means of access. T - -- Activist, anarchist and a bit of a dreamer.
