Tor was created by NSA, half of Tor servers are run by NSA, not that secure

    Tor was created by the Naval Research Labs, and was released to the public because it is secure.

    The problem is that if it's only the CIA or DIA using it, it's easy figure out who is using it and where. Make it global and now there is a lot of noise to separate out.

    Yeah, the security of tor relies on the nodes being different, but when most of them are owned by the same person/government body the security go downhill, sadly i2p isn't that popular, because every person is a node
