Of course I see no reason to indicate my involvement with the site in question on this mailing list. :) If you want to call it FUD then that's fine with me but you may want to ask yourself this simple question: Why do people outright block Tor? Could it be that they do so because they also see the same thing? >> I fully understand why many people do not want this cost > Cost? What cost?

Oy vey. Yes. Selling advertisements do increase shareholder value. Accepting donations do not. There are almost zero people who donate and that one person who donates 0.005 BTC per month is not enough to pay costs and pay dividends. If anyone is wondering why she hates shareholders so much, watch this documentary from 2003: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:Y3FHC5ARKKSGPQG3VKUYAK7N22O64FYU&dn=The%20Corporation%202003%20(Dvdrip)%20XviD > > from the Tor network without blocking it but implementing these > Deal with clearnet properly and you will have done with Tor as well. This is true and a very good point. Spammers gonna spam and it does not make a big difference if they use Tor or a botnet. Many sites therefore deal with these in the same way, they grab a big list and block them. There are, as I said, better ways to deal with this. The trick is to make it costly (require some form of human labor/interaction) to make an account yet cheap enough so that legitimate actual people do create accounts. > > bottom line just to please the two Tor users who are not abusive > > then > Just two non abusive users? Reference please. I was exaggerating, sorry. Most sites (smaller, anyway) have zero legitimate Tor users.
