As far as I understand, this is only true in that absolutely everything transmits your information directly to the CIA, moreso if you're trying to be anonymous.  I could be wrong.  My understanding is this list has tracked the Tor project closer than most, also could be wrong.

Yes, a couple years ago i proposed building an alternative anonymizing network, using a set of perhaps 1000 (or more?) Raspberry Pi computers,. owned by (i hope) ordinary people.  Output nodes could be mildly encrypted, just to ensure that anyone could run an output node and its output would be un-suspicious.

Continuing cost would be about $50/month, per node.  

My question?  Why hasn't this been done so far?  I would think that every dark market, and customer, would value such a thing.
