Don’t just use Tor, use VPN on top of it.

If you use tor frequently, you’d eventually get a bad “roll of dice” on the nodes and get 3 government run nodes. Its not a matter of “if” but “when”, roll the dice enough times, and the holes in the “swiss cheese” eventually line up.

If you are using Tor, also use a VPN along with it. It might make the traffic a little slower, but its worth it in case you get 3 NSA nodes.

Doesn’t it mean there’s only 1 node NSA has to attack - your VPN?

Kinda renders Tor over it pointless.

Better than 0 nodes, and this is not counting that they already attacked 3.
