2012-01-26 Thread ishan chhabra

Hi, In general, you are right. JonDos has contracts/stronger ties with all operators. With Tor, because anyone can run a relay, and there are thousands of them, it's harder to lock down users. At the moment, the JonDos website lists (only) 5 countries and 11 operators. I would very much fight ag
