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.

Well... I'm sure the Chinese government will be happy that HD Moore has helped them to catch activists who want nothing more than the ability to express themselves in a free an uncensored atmosphere which TOR did offer. Nobody is going to give you a medal HD nor a job for that matter. You need to stick to your 'exploits' and 'shellcode' This application is useless.. Now we can wait for somebody to develop an application that will obfuscate HD's utility. Which i'm sure that it's already in the process of being developed. Thanks for helping the enemy HD! I'm sure a lot of activists will be delighted when the Red Army comes to their door to arrest them because all they wanted was to be free and somewhere on the internet expressed this in text.
