We think that putting a backdoor in Tor would be tremendously |
498 | 496 |
irresponsible to our users, and a bad precedent for security |

But that said, there are still plenty of subtle attacks |
507 | 505 |
people might try. Somebody might impersonate us, or break into our |
508 | 506 |
computers, or something like that. Tor is open source, and you |
509 |
-should |

|
511 |
-release) |
|

|
513 |

Also, there might be accidental bugs in Tor that could affect your |
521 | 517 |
anonymity. We periodically find and fix anonymity-related bugs, so |
