these people really hate Tor; they spelled it "the TOR Project"... on purpose. dicks! on a related note, interpreting this document is an excellent exercise in focusing on what is _not_ said, both in terms of qualifiers and entire subjects/categories of omission. oh that one might maintain a retrospective mapping from ongoing Snowden leaks to misdirected / omitted / understated assertions and recommendations in this Grade A Toothless Attention Distractor (aka, "Report and Recommendations of The President’s Review Group on Intelligence and Communications Technologies")

you say this like it's different from anything else you might request *grin*

indeed. though this does bring up another question: i wonder if JYA will ever give in and support httpS? ... it would at least avoid trivial plaintext observation. last but not least: opsec tip#3164107562: you should assume everything remote and retrieved is malicious. grab in a throw away Qubes browser. convert in a throw away parse and translate VM, then finally read and/or save to a limited view VM using an open, trusted format.
