Now *that* can actually be measured at RV points, and I think should be a part of Tor metrics. I suspect that the ratio is much closer to 1% (or even below that), but on the other hand, most “regular” Tor users probably don't need anonymity, and would use a free VPN if it was as simple to install as a TBB, so the meaning of low percentage is moot. And of course, you could say the same about most .onion users — they would trade drugs and CP on clearnet if that was legal. What I would like to find is something interesting and unexpected that Tor is used for (not from the propaganda list on “Tor users” page). > I'd be also interested in a top50, 100, 1000, xxxxx of regular Tor exit > traffic. > And/or a port or destination IP wise statistic.
