Hey there! I'm the author of this series - happy to answer any questions.

I've also written up a comprehensive IoT infrastructure using Tor, Node-Red, MQTT, and sensor/actuator nodes as you choose.

It's all documented here: https://hackaday.io/project/12985-multisite-homeofficehacker...

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Spy on our country's citizens with deep packet inspection and put anyone on a list that reads anything related to Tor. With HTTPS, the visit of this website would seem 'innocent'.

It's a domain known to host Tor-related content, and HTTPS doesn't hide that you're connecting to it.

This. HTTPS hides the details of your requests to sites you visit, but it doesn't hide the actual sites themselves.
