    I find it amazing that anyone would trust an "anonymising" service funded by an intelligence-gathering outfit!

    You are oh so right! It was all the bad publicity that shut down Safeweb's free anonymizing service.

    We should all be aware of the major companies that are at least partly funded by InQTel, the CIA's technology "investment company."

    Boycott ALL of these companies!

    Browse3D
    Graviton
    IntelliSeek
    MediaSnap
    Mohomine
    Northern Light
    SafeWeb
    Systems Research & Development (SRD)
    Stratify
    Tacit Knowledge Systems
    Traction Software
    Zaplet
    and there's more!
