Re: Commercial tor offering?



That point was just an extra.  The major problem would be, as others chimed in 
about too, that you (person charging) would be royally screwed when the Feds 
decide to go on a witch hunt.  You (the potential person charging for service) 
and all your paying customers would be, as stated previously, on the short 
list for investigation.  You would definitely go on a watch list.
