Over the course of 2013 to 2014. The tor network has been breached through the network itself. Not even that... the payload ".exe" has been breached as well.

Hackers have found a way to redirect a node/payload on bootup of tor so that hackers can inject a flase/positive certificate that will allow them to inject malware, and other sorts of mean files. If you are using tor, well your out of luck. This has to do with a firefox exploit. Theres no way of stopping this because this exploit effects the whole tor network... tor devs cant even fix this now.

I can go further on with this story as it is very interesting but, my main point is DONT USE TOR ANYMORE.

Recommendations: research this stuff

I'm a god.
I'm not seeing this article online any where, but I am seeing where supposedly the US government may have breached and were able to de-anonymize users using TOR. Which also TOR has been funded by the US government to up it's security.
