      You can host IDs of Saudi dissidents in country that regularly shares intel with KSA? You think China doesn't hunt dissident IDs in the US?

      Not by name but I can think of some Egyptians who do.

      So Saudi dissidents using Tor hidden services was a hypothetical?

      Yes. But the thought of dissidents in closely allied countries is in no way hypothetical.

      Sure. My problem is that beneficial/positive examples of political Tor use are frequently hypothetical, with no basis in reality. Why?

          Evade my question if you'd like. But why conjure political users of Tor out of thin air?

          Raising the possibility of Saudis using a bridge to use Tor but not PERSONALLY having had convos w/someone who does is not hypothetical.

          One q: Do the people who do use Tor that you mentioned, do they use the hidden services feature?

          Well, Tor is a tool of US imperialism and regime change. Everything else that happens on that network only bolsters its primary function.

          More reasonable people would instead note that it has been used by dissidents who oppose regimes US opposes AS WELL AS those they support.
