Re: [Trisquel-users] Should free hardware have warranty

2016-05-12 Thread jeremiah

[Trisquel-users] Should free hardware have warranty

I don't understand this. If they are using Tor to torrent (thus revealing their IP address) they are not anonymous so there is no 'herd' immunity. If anything it makes the people who need anonymity easier to spot because they are the only ones not using it to circumvent blocks of torrent site
