    The services you’re mentioning became as large and ‘dark’ as they are due to actually being secure services, any secure enough service will become like that eventually. Any service not like that is usually not secure enough unfortunately.

      Yeah that’s why I think there should be a balance.

      Like the commercial VPN scene. Torrent a few movies and you’re totally safe. But harm kids or sell weapons and you will eventually get your door knocked down.

      That’s why VPNs have an ok reputation and they are publicly advertising. And tor has this dark shadow over it.
