I use Tor for just about all my daily web browsing.
I also run a Tor relay from home. Even run my own mail server, XMPP and
Friendica nodes from home.
Guess that makes me an ultra-extremist.
The irony? I only decided to start using Tor by default for everything
once I became aware of the near total nature of passive surveillance.
So if using Tor makes me an 'extremist' well, please accept this heartfelt;

Really there's nothing to lose at this point by encrypting and anonymizing
every bit that leaves every computer you own.
If NSA wants to own my devices I'll keep cycling them out on a regular
basis with new and used gear I pay for in cash and pick up in person.

I remember reading somewhere that on any given day in the 'United State'
there are a couple hundred thousand active Tor users. We should add
GnuNET, I2P, CJDNS, CurveCP and many more to that list.
I am Spartacus!!!
