Tor hack proposed to catch criminals
Robert Lemos, SecurityFocus 2007-03-08

The Tor network--a distributed system of computers that anonymizes the source of network traffic--has a slew of beneficial uses: Human-rights workers, the military and journalists all use the system. However, the anonymity of Tor has also attracted seedier elements as well: digital pirates, online criminals and, quite possibly, child pornographers.

I don't think you understand fully where HD is coming from. He's a major contributor to the overall security of computersystems. He knows what he's talking about and he does exactly what every security professional should do: give knowledge and tools to the community. He's not a backroom coder who wants to get in the news by stirring some controversy. I'm sure he has his reasons for making this code, since he made time in between making Metasploit 3.0 better than ever before.
