While we're at it, let's add security questions (with answers stored
ROT-13 encrypted in a world-readable file) to PAM. And forward it to
random people.
Tor doesn't do anything useful. Instead of forwarding through
ISP-owned trusted infrastructure, Tor also forwards through random
machines. Connect to MySpace (unencrypted) and some random nut just
had your e-mail/password combo stolen, ripe for use on ... probably
logging into gmail first, to get your other passwords; then directly
into PayPal.
Tor has been successfully attacked so many times in the real world
it's not funny.
