If you haven’t heard of them it’s because they haven’t released and games ever


The fear for a lot of people is that if Xbox games aren’t exclusive people will buy a Playstation instead. Which makes sense, why by the console than can play most games when you could get the console that can play all games. This puts the Xbox hardware platform in a very difficult place. Especially because it’s already way behind in market share.



Disclaimer that I haven’t used Tor in a while, do your own research, etc

The US navy designed and open sourced the Tor network. If all the traffic meant to be anonymous was coming from the US navy it doesn’t work well as an anonymizer. There’s been various claims that they have backdoors over the years, but to my knowledge none have held water.

Unless you’re running an exit node (which requires different software than the Tor browser) other people’s traffic isn’t getting routed through you so you’re fine legally.

VPNs are not very good at protecting you from the websites or services you connect to. They’re best used to hide where you’re connecting to from your ISP. Modern fingerprinting using things like browsing habits, installed software, web browser size, cookies, etc is barely effected by VPNs and the Tor browser takes care of an minimizes lots of those tools.

The biggest issue for day to day use for me is how slow it is. Because your traffic is being routed through 3-5 nodes before getting to its destination overall speed and latency suffer a lot
