My guess my point is that it's not foolproof, and this is known. You can get unlucky and even if it's based on a side channel, and not Tor itself, it can still get serious if you though you were 100% safe.

I think you overestimates the protection Tor provides. We have seen multiple cases of people getting caught on there, and CIA probably owns half the exit nodes anyways.

These snake oil salesmen have been ruining every space we love for a while now. That is hardly news.

I will argue that it is not that intelligent either. For the sake of argument, let's say intelligence is about brain processing power and intellect is about how much information you have retained. Then what they have created is more like Artificial Intellect than Artificial Intelligence :)

Professors can be an absolute moron and someone who haven't read a book in their life, can be a total genius. People often miss that.

Why would I use AI to recreate a tool that AI obviates? It's like trying to prove that calculators are a scam by pointing out that no one has used one to build a better abacus.

I can't help thinking about how much we have lost. Just finding the scrollbar nowadays can be a challenge. Not to mention if you want to resize a pane - in some applications they seem to have taken extra steps to make it difficult to find the line to grab.

Comparing Go and .NET is like comparing a Honda with an aircraft carrier with wheels.
