My little story. Facebook banned me after a month of use. I never logged in via Tor. I was not told the reason for the ban. I guess it's because I didn't use my real name. Anyhow, thank you for providing us your Onion website! :-)On Fri, 22 Apr 2016 23:02:11 -0400 Roger Dingledine <arma@xxxxxxx> wrote:On Sat, Apr 23, 2016 at 11:41:09AM +1000, Peter Tonoli wrote:This is a real success story for TorI agree! Thank you Alec and other security people at Facebook for seeing the value in secure communications, and also for being willing to stand up and talk about numbers. For those who are now thinking "wait, what's the point in using Tor when going to Facebook?",Right, there isnt any. This is just your usual and stupid propaganda. Now go get a few more grants from the pentagon.
The thing is that Tor is bad for circumventing censorship because Tor is not a masked proxy. Guess what will happen when Facebook rulers realize this.Then suddenly Iran blocked Facebook, a good chunk of the Persian Facebook population switched over to reaching Facebook via Tor, and he became a huge Tor fan because otherwise those users would have been cut off.
