You forgot the /sarc tag, right?
By what measure are you defining security, Shadow? TOR is much more secure with regards to obfuscation than unencrypted Internet traffic. Certainly you’re better off with securing transactions via SSL/TLS, but if you want to be “anonymous,” TOR is the way to go. I meant secure inasmuch as anonymous. I think it’s pretty well understood that TOR is not for the meek or stupid.
