Tor is _not_ just about hiding who you are to a service provider, but  
also about hiding where you go from a local observer (your ISP, other  
people on the same network, etc). Also, access of blocked services  
certainly is a big aspect here. Same goes for hidden services - I  
might be the only person who knows the address of my hidden service,  
and it's still a valid use case.

Please don't try to provoke a big stream of "I think you're wrong,  
too" emails. Go read the website first.
