I won't repeat Tor Project's own warnings here, but I will note that they are only a beginning, and are not adequate to protect you from such threats.

But if it does, then you absolutely must be vigilant if you wish to remain alive and free. If having your activity discovered does not put your life or liberty at risk, then you probably do not need to go to all of this trouble. Since you want security of "the greatest degree technically feasible", I'm going to assume that your threat is a well-funded government with significant visibility or control of the Internet, as it is for many Tor users (despite the warnings that Tor alone is not sufficient to protect you from such an actor).Ĭonsider whether you truly need this level of protection.

Despite its known weaknesses, it's still the best thing we have, provided it's used properly and you make no mistakes. As a very long time Tor user, the most surprising part of the NSA documents for me was how little progress they have made against Tor.
