Tor Exec Claims NSA Agents Supply It With Vulnerability Information

As such, it appears to Lewman that some involved in intelligence work are contravening their co-workers and helping Tor fix issues that those agencies might otherwise be able to exploit.

I'm surprise is not the other way around. What I heard is they knowingly created a vulnerable for the NSA to exploit.

If you have a secret entrance, of course you want to block off all the other routes in.

Great. TOR works with the NSA. I've never used it for that fear.

Monthly vulnerability reports like clockwork eh?  Yup, definitely sounds very 'government like'.  Curious though that they would be helping Tor plug the holes.  You would think the NSA of all people would want to keep quiet about that sort of stuff to make it easier for them to do their job listening to everyone.

Guys? Doesen't it sound like some kind of soap opera to you?

/to the topic, maybe someone who doesen't like what he have to do in his work is leaking this things, based on morale or something. Wouldn't be surprised at all.
