Yes well, I won't be using it you can bet that much!
It's one of those things, how much do you want to risk your asshole getting drugs you could get from anywhere in any neighbourhood in the world.
Shit, watch VICE: Travel Guide To Liberia and in the worst slum on Earth they're speedballing with heroin and coke all fucking day. Pretty much says it all really!
I only ever smoked weed anyway and gave that up for health reasons so you all do what you have to but I wouldn't jump straight into the deep end that's for sure.
Especially when all the vast majority of TOR nodes are run by the FED's who no doubt have got other countries to participate as well and for all we know are just sitting on the exit nodes slurping up everything like they always do.
The NSA has every fiber optic wire anywhere tapped and they invented TOR for their own people in their foreign embassies to send info back to the US government safely despite the bullshit about dissidents it's only pro-US dissidents they care about as we have seen with both Assange and Snowden, and they also own the fucking internet literally anyway.
When it came time for the UN to take over the infrastructure essential to making it run the US who had originally told them they would go along with it changed their mind at the last minute.
Seems like a no brainer to me... just sayin!

Hey " JWM ". Can I please see some reptile source of these facts that you are sharing ?
Information is great and all newcomers seek it to be more safer and use services such as SilkRoad better.
But unless you can provide proof of your claims I'm afraid you are doing nothing more but spreading lies that would otherwise confuse users that do not know much about the topic at hand.
Sure read Julian Assange's autobiography he was Mendax, the greatest computer hacker in the world (and still is) and he could control satellites or explore Nasa's darkest files.
I suggest you just be weary about what you do. 
The cops have all said with what at first I thought was bullshit they know everything, from the US to the UK to Australia, they have this shit down so be careful.
All it takes is for them to control the exit nodes (which they pay for like all of TOR) and sit on the end and drink it like a Slurpy monitoring traffic flows and so on and what nformation is going through those nodes is stored and analyzed like everything else online. Don't let the Dark in darknet fool you, 95% of the internet is considered the darknet and only 5% lousy percent is the World Wide Web.
I suggest you learn about TOR as well on YouTube because for the most part someone like yourself is no concern, others like Freedom Hosting, Lolita City or The Hidden wiki (or Silk Road's servers) are another story.
Atlantis didn't close because they wanted to, they realised as I do that this shit is for real!
Peace
I'm sorry but A LOT of what you are saying is just not true.
Yes the three letter agencies may control some exit nodes but nothing more than 50%, even if they do control them, it is still a struggle to personally identify people.
Have a look at all of the NSA documents that are slowly being leaked, the methods they use to find people is very time consuming and still not even a high chance of that being a worthwhile because Tor itself has not, and as of not yet been compromised.
Julian Assange is one of the greatest hackers known to man because he was caught, there is always someone better than you out there, many hackers have not been caught and have done much more damage than he did.
As for Tor being paid for by the government, is that yes they are funded by the US Navy who started the project and one of the two top contributors is still working with them, what you are missing on telling everyone else is that, it is an open source package and undergoes security audits every update by the MANY, MANY people that have access to it's source.
Tor was created to form a way for the Navy to have encrypted communications within itself and other US based services without being worried that foreign hackers or governments might find their communications because they are sticking out like a sore thumb, so Tor is made public so even the enemy may use it to help themselves blend in. That is why the Navy runs and operates a few of their own exit nodes, as well as other agencies.
With the story of Atlantis, you should check out the .org TLD of the Atlantis blog to see one of the now ex-employees talk about the closing of the site and it basically comes down to .. " scam " They couldn't hack it like BMR and SM and cut their losses and took what they could while they were on their way out.
Please stop spreading misinformation to users that do not understand the topic at hand because it does nothing but send a false sense of knowledge.
Please people, do your research on all these topics, it will do nothing but good for you. Sadly This user JezuzWazzaMushroom isn't spreading facts nor has any real evidence of what they are preaching and look to just be ' trolling '. Please, Please do your own research before believing anything you see on the Internet.
