    I’m not saying they aren’t providing a valuable service to many people. They are to me. But they also have the potential to cause great harm to their users, and are very hard to hold to account, should they ever do that. So I try finding the one I distrust least, and use that.

    I don’t really see the parallels to ‘nothing to hide’. It’s just a bit of, in my eyes not entirely unjustified, paranoia.

    I am generally distrustful of anyone who takes money to hide potentially illegal activities. I don’t think they shouldn’t ever be used, but they do have the potential to be a massive weak point, and the way they’re set up to avoid censorship laws also means you can’t really hold them to account, should something go wrong. Ever tried sueing anyone in Panama?
