if you are familiar how to edit a torrc, you can then define in their trustworthy nodes
that's a ridiculous comment because you do NOT know which nodes are 'trustworthy'
Well, I can only speak for myself, because I know some operators of those nodes and ran in the past my own.
And even if you did, the comment is still wholly misleading because the typical attack against tor is based on 'traffic analysis' based on packet/byte counts and timing. And those data are not 'encrypted'. So you can choose all the 'trustworthy' nodes you want, you are still fucked.
Quote: MULTI-LAYERED ENCRYPTION Your traffic is relayed and encrypted three times as it passes over the Tor network. The network is comprised of thousands of volunteer-run servers known as Tor relays. And when setting up a Tor Hidden Service, like I did, you have also a key pair for your .onion site. Regards Stefan
