+	    For most uses, Tor provides the best available protection
+            against a well-resourced observer.  It's an open question
+            how much protection Tor (or any other existing anonymous
+            communications tool) provides against the NSA's
+            large-scale Internet surveillance. On its own, Tor can't
+            protect against attacks against vulnerabilities on your
+            computer or its software; Tor is not the only tool you
+	    need to be secure on the internet.
+            We're working on
+            writing clear explanations for the issues, and the state of
+	    the research field as it stands.
