If only people stopped writing this stuff in javascript.
I agree. It seems like a maintainability issue. I can't imagine anyone familiar enough with DNS to contribute has experience working with Node. Maybe I'm wrong...

yes. please stop the endless javascripting of the world..
like it or not, js is the programming language that runs on the most devices in the world.

What's the point? DNSCrypt is already encrypted and Tor offers zero privacy but it does offer the FBI helpfully monitoring to de-anonymize Tor clients and servers. Using a VPN and DNSCrypt together would far better. Plus, Tor adds unnecessary latency (unusable for daily use) and suspicion, rendering it's benefit nearly nullified apart from paedophiles or people trading drugs. i2p and others seem to be headed in the r…
This is pure FUD.

Don't use VPN services.
