[BBLISA] Looking for Internet anonymizer

[Eric Smith]

If they are really as paranoid as they claim, then they can't trust Tor.
Maybe Tor has fixed these issues - I'm certainly not Tor expert and

Security expert used Tor to collect government e-mail passwords -

(someone was operating a fake Tor node and sniffing the traffic going though it)
