> That's funny: I remember arguing that using Tor against governments which can monitor networks is shouting "look at me, I have something to hide".
This isn't a unreasonable sentiment considering that the majority of Tor Project's funding comes from the U.S. Department of Defense (which NSA's parent organization) and the U.S. State Department.

Of course the DoD funds a great many huge number of things, much of it completely innocent. Just something to keep in mind, I guess.
It's good that it's open source so it's feasible to dismiss suspicions.
