-    There is absolutely no backdoor in Tor. Nobody has asked us to put
-one
-    in, and we know some smart lawyers who say that it's unlikely that
-anybody
-    will try to make us add one in our jurisdiction (U.S.). If they do
-    ask us, we will fight them, and (the lawyers say) probably win.

     We think that putting a backdoor in Tor would be tremendously
     irresponsible to our users, and a bad precedent for security
-software
-    in general. If we ever put a deliberate backdoor in our security
-    software, it would ruin our professional reputations. Nobody would
-    trust our software ever again &mdash; for excellent reason!

     But that said, there are still plenty of subtle attacks
     people might try. Somebody might impersonate us, or break into our
     computers, or something like that. Tor is open source, and you
-should
-    always check the source (or at least the diffs since the last
-release)
-    for suspicious things. If we (or the distributors) don't give you
-    source, that's a sure sign something funny might be going on. You
-    should also check the <a href="<page docs/verifying-signatures>">PGP
-    signatures</a> on the releases, to make sure nobody messed with the
-    distribution sites.

     Also, there might be accidental bugs in Tor that could affect your
     anonymity. We periodically find and fix anonymity-related bugs, so
