Someone leaked the internal logs. (2014) Tor hasn’t felt the need to
   make any statements about the leaked data. when i asked, the community
   team lead (Tor)  wrote to me

   He said:

   I'm curious about "the daily log was leaked". What does this exactly
   mean?

   He learned that information from me. Then Tor and he stopped.

   That's what I said. I wanted to keep people informed.

     No logs is often bullshit... VPN's may honestly launch with no logs,
     but soon turn to keeping logs, or logging and trojaning and NITting
     requested users by/for GovCorp, etc. Either way, you have zero
     insurance,
     audit, or inspection that anything they say regarding logs is true.
     There is also no penalty, if operators are not well known big public
     persons
     the VPN's just shutdown, rebrand, reboot.
     Assuming that everything is logged forever is the
     better starting point.

     Software tor is good at some things.
     But quite bad at other things.
     Even the NSA said "Tor Stinks" not all of the time, and
     that was based at least 10 years ago... today's NSA
     can say that tor stinks even worse at protecting
     users due to NSA and other attackers advancements in
     Traffic Analysis, Sybil, etc. Meanwhile tor's fundamental
     design and deployment has stayed 100% the same since day 1.
     NSA etc +1, Tor 0.

     Don't respect a Tor Project that
     - lies false advertising to its users on its homepage
     - defrauds buyer of $2M worth of NFT by falsely claiming it was
     first onion
     - refuses to answer records requests from its userbase
     - kicks out contributors observers commentators for having different
     sociopolitical perspectives, exposing inconvienient truths, etc
     - bricks up and censors all its public comms channels
     - removes features being actively used by its users, claiming
     it has sole use-case authority over its userbase and users,
     while providing bogus orthagonal and non-detailed arguments
     to support removal
     - etc, etc, etc... read all the mail lists

     What exactly, with links, are you talking about?

     Tor Project Inc, its employees, and core "community" of
     hangers-on, crumb gobbling handout chasers, wokesters,
     and opportunist$-by-association... haven't made statements
     or answered a lot of questions a lot of people have asked.
     > And some of them work in highest ranked position on Google.
     Google are known spies and apologists for Governments,
     search results distorters, undue influencers, Youtube Censors, etc.
     > the Tor community team
     Partisan, self-dealing, non-independant, censorious.
     Good luck trying to ombud anything to them.
     > TOR may be transferring daily-log to an institution
     Tor has "partnered" with, been silent on, with such institutions
     like EDU's and research labs, and been called out for it in the
     past.
     Even some of them institutions were working to exploit users, even
     working for or giving exploit tech or de-anon'd users to
     governments.
     Tor also have a laughable "ethical research" policy, who
     have on numerous occaisions "convinced" public researchers
     to stop their proposed or works in progress, but all other attackers
     happily ignore and never write papers or full disclosure about, thus
     users remain in the public dark about details what tor really
     can and cannot do, what attacks are being attempted against them.
     And Tor Project whitewashes any remaining "coordinated release"
     through their professionally managed and massaged comms and
     prop channels.
     After all, Tor Project employees could lose their $Millions
     in government and donor funding if a more balanced
     picture was made, thus reducing the paychecks to
     zero, the home mortgages to default, etc.
     So is there any conflict of interest there, you decide.
     Tor the Project, and tor the software, are different but
     related and interdependent things. That makes some
     users and analysts uncomfortable.
     There are hardly any operational encrypted anonymous
     overlay networks from which to choose. Some exist for
     dedicated purposes like messaging, crypto, storage etc,
     but almost none are a general purpose transport net,
     or net for running existing IPv6 applications, etc.
     All thus, there should be new softwares made and
     launched from new and anonymous un-Projects.
     Use parts of designs from existing projects as needed.
     That is the cypherpunk way.
     Because... "Tor Stinks -- NSA".
