What is Tor? Tor is free software and an open network that helps you defend against a form of network surveillance that threatens personal freedom and privacy, confidential business activities and relationships, and state security known as traffic analysis….. Journalists use Tor to communicate more safely with whistleblowers and dissidents. Non-governmental organizations (NGOs) use Tor to allow their workers to connect to their home website while they're in a foreign country, without notifying everybody nearby that they're working with that organization.
Sounds good doesn’t it? So who is likely to allow their computer network to be used as a vehicle to protect the electronic communications of whistleblowers and dissidents?

Adrian Lamo? Really? Isn’t he the onetime hacker who informed on 'whistleblower' Bradley Manning (U.S. serviceman who sent copies of U.S. diplomatic cables to Wikileaks) and, isn’t Manning now confined to military prison and allegedly subject to torture?
Oh, Tor – not exactly the best testament. But then what can one expect from an anonymity network apparently originally sponsored by the US Naval Research Laboratory and probably intended by intelligence agencies to act as a sometime honey trap at their convenience?
