Do you understand the research we are doing? Do you know technically
what we have done, and what we hope to do, and what the impact has been
and will be?

If you don't know yet, please check out our page:

If you have seen and understood that, please explain what about it you
find so objectionable. Note also that the Tor Project is using our
database to improve Tor itself, too.

We are working to make the internet safer for everyone.
