Tor itself has a known security vulnerability on exit nodes.

What security vulnerability? Tor is has almost never the weakest link. I feel like that FAQ is making a lot of claims and not many sources are given.

Bud you need to keep up. NSA has backdoored TOR and the last SR bust apparently came from leaky ip codes.

That might be true, however it has not been proven. What they mean is that a Tor exit node (which anybody can set up) can be easily sniffed by performing a man in the middle attack, stealing your data.

You guys are taking a small piece of information without actually understanding the technology and assuming a lot. Yes Tor exit nodes are CAPABLE of being sniffed but that is by design. This problem is easily mitigated by using HTTPS (or other solutions).

There is no proof for this claim and its more likely that they messed up somewhere else, there were a lot easier points of weakness than Tor.



Oh come on, what are you doing, trying to defend Tors security? Its not secure at all.
It was created by the US army and the US government is the main donor to the project still.
2+2 equals...
Edit: I will ignore this discussion as its not BAY related.
