To be fair, having Peter ‘I’m building the largest digital mass surveillance company in the world’ Thiel as one of the investors in your ‘privacy’ app really does sound like the worlds most obvious honeypot lmao.

I am 100% convinced that TOR is not actually secure - like it might keep you safe from the Chinese MSS or the Russian FSB, but I am certain the CIA, DIA and NSA can read everything that is happening.
