Thomas is very right, but I was more interested in my reasons why I don't use Tor based on all the crap I see going on around it.

Do you avoid software like FreeBSD, Linux, Mac OS X, and all other software that fits the criteria of your post? Point is, you have shitty reasons and probably aren't consistant in your application of them. Government funding and a committer you don't like preclude the usage of a huge amount of software.

My general frustation with your blog post is that your arguments apply to many popular pieces of software. It feels disingenuous and it feels like it's provocative solely for the purpose of being provocative.
