TOR Project Donation

in #privacy7 years ago

As I mentioned in my June Witness Update, I was going to donate 50% of the SBD reward to the TOR Project.

The post received 185.764 SBD, which means I will be donating 93 SBD to the TOR Project. As TOR project asks for an amount, I have entered 110 USD (the current market rate of almost $2 per SBD is incorrect because Poloniex is not accepting SBD at the moment).

I used @blocktrades to send 93 SBD to their BitPay address

Sadly they sent it with a low transaction fee, however it should hopefully confirm in the next few hours, and TOR Project should receive an nice $110 donation :)

Any further rewards from this post will be donated to another internet freedom/privacy non-profit. If you have any suggestions for them, leave them in the comments. I will avoid making another post unless there's a massive amount on this post, else I'll be stuck in an endless loop (as happened with my previous RiseUp Donations).

Tor users and relay operators like myself much appreciate you donating to the Tor Project, helping to fund ongoing development and improvement of the software for us all.

Have you considered I2P as a possible beneficiary for donations?

I2P sounds like a good idea for my next donation :)

Thanks for the suggestion

I absolutely love tor browser . My business partner and I use it over chrome whenever we get the chance. Some chrome extensions are just too necessary for us otherwise we would uninstall in an instant.

wasn't tor created by United states defense department , and do they really need funding?

So was the Internet.

yes , so DARPA no longer funds tor?

I believe Darpa only funded the original design of Tor. it has become it's own open source platform since then.

oh, didn't known that!

Yeah it's part of what makes Tor secure is the anonymous nod network which no one has central control over. it's decantrlized.

It seems like you think you have a point, though I can't imagine what it might be.

awesome! :D keep up the great work my friend

I like this way to do, it help things to move, it a nice donation, hope they will use it well. Thank you for your post, im upvoting you and following you, like this way to think or acting.

I love how people here are active in making this community more awesome than it already is. Congrats @someguy123

Well, I'm glad to see so much being sent to the Tor Project.
Let's hope more donations come in.

Do love Tor. Great idea using Steemit to help support them.

Well, I am so much into donation. I have a thing for helping people. Infact, I always donate half of my steemit earnings to charity. Because this is the way we can make this world a better place.
Hats off to your cause and this gesture of yours.

I would like to be a witness.

Проект тор - это замечательное пожертвование, программное обеспечение необходимо

Yes please, give all our moneys to TOR right meow! I may be a god myself, and yet I have no choice in worshiping the TOR project. You sir, got yourself a new follower, myself. Wish I could upvote this more than once, wish we all could...!
