Malicious computers caught snooping on Tor-anonymized Dark Web sites
Isn&#x27;t it obvious by now that Tor is outdated and instead of trying to repair it, something next-gen should be devised? IPFS looks like a good starting point, and unlike Tor, it sounds like it has a real shot to evolve if enough people stand behind it (since its various components aren&#x27;t glued together and allow for new protocol elements in the stack).<p>I am aware IPFS has limitations and that there are valid P2P attacks to which it either couldn&#x27;t resist well (reduced capacity) or it could straight out give away its users IP addresses -- but hey, in my opinion Tor has been mostly compromised by authorities around the world and is currently widely used to persecute people -- some of which might simply be paranoid like myself and dislike being tracked, <i>without doing anything illegal</i>.<p>Doesn&#x27;t that mean that Tor has outlived its usefulness?<p>Must we be afraid or tracking and profiling everywhere we go on the net? Have the bad guys already won?
