Shallot donor means annual donations in excess of $100k USD. From the Tor website[0], it appears Mullvad is the only donor in excess of $49k USD annually (and possibly the only donor above $10001 USD). [0] https://www.torproject.org/about/membership/

Imagine using Mullvad VPN for entering Tor and realizing that your activity is transparent for Mullvad.
Given that they have literally switched their nodes to be diskless and released lots of their work to strongly disable logging in systems, that may be acceptable for most users. The risk model determines your behavior.
I feel like there is no scenario where it should be allowed to forget that all the claims are always falsifiable. Not saying they are lying, just that no one ever truly knows. It's important to not be complacent with that.

Yeah I’m not trying to hide from the law, I’m trying to get the airline to stop giving me weird price quotes and bbc to let me stream their shows.
Seems understandable.

Have you paid your license fee?

The Tor Project is primarily funded by the State Department and DARPA. Make of that as you will.

Well I am. I have a right to. If you want to have plausible deniability when you inevitably must do something legally wrong but morally right, then you must always be hiding.

I can totally imagine they're using Tor for some undercover (foreign) operations or similar. I don't think the US Government with all its branches is known to practise exactly what it preaches.
