However, I want to throw shade on the absolutely ridiculous idea that the USG functions as a monolithic all-seeing entity.
The USG funds Tor because parts of the USG use Tor and parts of the USG love Tor and want it to succeed.
The fact that OTHER PARTS of the USG hate Tor and want to compromise it is normal, expected. The USG is big.
Contradictions are the rule in human systems, not the exception.
