I trust it enough to make nearly thousands of posts on these silly forums blatantly admitting that I willfully and repeatedly break the law to feed my addiction; I also order very nearly all of my drugs through it while trusting the encryption of in-Tor-network communications; I also transmit my real name and address via RSA encryption (PGP) and trust that too (well really I should say a real name tied to the address).I'll have over 40 orders by week's end. I haven't lost a single one, either. If I were a vendor I'd do all my business from home, yes. Does that answer your question about trusting Tor? :) Frankly what worries me quite a bit more is the server getting pwned or some sneaky federal agency posing as a vendor or some silly thing like that. Tor I have no concerns with -- none based in reality, anyway.
