I want to be able to walk to the coffee shop, mail a Christmas card to my aunt Sarah, buy a cup of coffee, go to the library, and look at pictures of Iceland, and then come home and not find advertizements in my mail box saying my aunt Sarah likes Acme Brand Coffee, and travel brochures for Iceland; but on the internet we know today, this is the level of privacy we have (none). And why do we have this lack of privacy? To make other people money. As the Tor developers put it, there is an "arms race" between censorship and data collection, and freedom and privacy. I am using my skill-set to help others make it more difficult to take my freedom and privacy away.
