You're attacking the name instead of the content. Accessing facebook via the onion service means that you know you're talking to facebook directly; using facebooks via either tor or directly exposes you to the risk of being MITM'd, including faked SSL certs. Even if the NSA is capable of brute forcing the onion key facebook itself could build a canary by trying to access its own onion service. If the connection ending back up with them has strange properties they know something is wrong. ... > > NSA would immediately command Facebook to offer the related user > > identification. > > ...assuming facebook isn't already fowarding relevant data in > real time, all of the time... Facebook doesn't necessarily have identifying information on their users. Andreas -- "Totally trivial. Famous last words."
