Many things, including Tor-network, are not purely good or bad. The Tor network offers the platform for telling things, prohibited in many countries. And that thing makes this network difficult to handle. When people are making things like legislation for the internet. They are balancing privacy and individual rights and control. The thing is that if something is prohibited. That just slips into the Tor network.
The Tor network is the place that might feel safe. But there is the possibility that organizations like NSA or some other intelligence agencies are made trap pages or "honey pots" in that network. Those homepages include a so-called tracking cookie, that is sent to the receiving computer and that cookie tells the location and IP address of the computer by sending the data over the Tor connection.
The same network that offers privacy is offering a platform for child abusers and drug dealers. And the fact is that the things like network pornography are embarrassing things for people who are playing with their attitudes and high moral things. When some people will justify something. They should understand. That when they are using the net somebody can walk behind them.
So what would you think about the person who justifies things like pornography? But in that person's home is a room full of pornographic movies. That thing is a little bit embarrassing. Same way. When a person like a conservative "family man" is surprised watching child pornography, that thing can be a "little bit" embarrassing.
The Tor network offers privacy and protects information. Privacy and information protection along with anonymity in the use of the internet are the key elements for protecting democracy. But those things are the most misused in the world. The Tor network is also the dark side of the internet. In the so-called darknet child abuse, drug dealers, and other kinds of marginal groups are found the place where those people can make their hobby. That is one of the saddest things on the internet. There should be limits to freedom.
Things like pedophilia are the tabu. They are prohibited, and the problem is that many people are not confessing those things even to themselves. And then suddenly they see the homepage, where are shown those things. So that homepage can turn very often to the browser of that kind of people. So sooner or later somebody walks behind that person, and then some things that are not tolerated in a middle-class family are seen on that screen.
The problem in western society is that people are hard to talk about their thoughts and "prohibited behavior". There is a high threshold to go to the doctor and ask about things like suspicion of pedophilia especially if the person is talking about themselves. That kind of thing might help, if a person gets support, therapy, and the right medical and maybe some child-abusing cases will not happen, if pedophiles dare to get help. And if some person is addicted to net pornography that disturbs the work that thing requires discussion.
But the internet has brought hardcore porn and its byproducts to the front of people. And some of the things that are in the films and pictures are embarrassing. There might be middle-class conservative families' housemaids making something that is prohibited.
The fact is that most of those people are full-aged and responsible for themselves. But should we deny pornography? The fact is that this kind of thing just will slip to the Tor network where nobody can control it. The problem is that the wealthy pedophiles can travel to countries where is no legislation about those things.
The internet brought many things that are prohibited in front of people. The crimes and wars including the Ukrainian war are now in front of our eyes. And sometimes, I wonder would there be sanctions against Russia if there is no internet?
This is the problem with the internet and Tor-network. Tor network offers freedom and a channel to publish things that are not tolerated. The problem is that it's the platform for things like child abuse and drug dealers.
