Yes sure, but just to make that clear, I didn't say with a single  
word, that Tor "produces" criminal acts, but it collects them without  
doubts, since it's very secure and easy to use. Of course criminals  
don't use Tor because it's legal, but because it's very effective,  
even compared with illegal options.
