So I was reading through the following article:

http://www.forbes.com/sites/thomasbrewster/2015/04/17/darpa-nasa-and-par
tners-show-off-memex/

And there is some references to DARPA collaborating with some
developers from Tor Project. I'd like to ask the developers of Tor to
clarify what this involvement entails and why effort is being put
towards a LE tool instead of working on hiding Tor users through
improving anonymity or developing more circumvention based-tech.

Hope I don't come off as a Pando-type, but there is always going to be
a concern where Tor is involved with LE and it isn't out in the open
(to my knowledge) already.
