To many, yes.
To many on the internet which was financed by DARPA? The irony is strong on this thread.
That's a bit different from DARPA.

I mean I urge folks who have the ability to direct some of their company's money towards Tor. It's directly helping both Ukranian and Russian citizens right now.
Sure Tor helps Ukrainian and Russian citizens, but I urge the Tor foundation to question themselves and to stop accepting crypto token donations and grants. It acts as an endorsement and emboldens the cryptobros, enthusiasts and fans to pump the price of the token.

I despise crypto, but telling an underfunded OSS project to abandon scarce funding for what is a relatively minor ideological reason definitely rubs me the wrong way. Rather than demanding them to change, why not find a way to help secure them a source of less objectionable funding.

Do you ask that in the comments of every project on the off chance?

We've seen in recent years that fiat payment systems are ran by bad actors, that will on a whim revoke access to their systems to any entity they deem "problematic", even if no laws have been broken.
Crypto allows entities to freely exchange money without having to worry about passing some arbitrary purity test or getting witch-hunted into oblivion.

I am not a big fan of alt-coins, but I'm not sure I would dare call ZCash a "Crypto token scam project". A scam in my book has one or more of the following properties: - pre-mined (a part) off all tokes (like ETH ~70%) [1] - has a team that will "rug pull" the users of their coin (think ONEcoin) [2] - Is only paying lip-service to being decentralized (think again ETH) [3] Also, who cares where the money comes from? I…
Tor is already seen in a bad light for being used for illicit activity, terrorism, illegal drugs, etc. We can have and fund tools that enhances privacy without endorsing or taking money from a so called 'cryptocurrency' that exists to distribute fake internet dark web tokens.

When you know a better solution just name it. It's easy to criticice a decision when you don't need to find a better way. Who's interested in some crypto bros and some idiots that lose their money when you don't have another working possibility?
I am sure there are other grants that I have missed out but the solution is there.
So at this point it is ready for passing traffic through a SOCKS proxy. Meaning we can `cargo run --release -- proxy` and redirect applications to use port `9150` for their network connections. Couple of related questions: - Does anyone know, in a Linux distro, how to pass all system traffic through a SOCKS proxy port? I'm not looking for intermediary proxy handlers but an official method to force all user and system…
I guess SOCKS5 handles tcp and udp - so you might get away with redsocks (which explicitly recommends against using with TOR):

See also transocks (SOCKS4 tcp only): https://transocks.sourceforge.net
And transocks (in go) https://github.com/cybozu-go/transocks

Have you finally cracked the Tor network yet to find and trace all those Nazis, extremists, hitmen and terrorists that are still hiding there to make that unfounded claim?
Seems to be exactly as unfounded as yours, yes?
