MODERATORS
Tor is indeed about providing cover. US Military and US and German covert operations use it, and hide in the noise. But in those situations, it’s a win/win, as they provide funding and everyone gets to have a somewhat secure channel.
I’d argue though that in any case where you don’t control the exit node, you have no expectation of real privacy. So it becomes a question of how much you’re willing to trade.
