Tor is fine if your not doing sicko shit or trying to buy drugs...but for the record, its been compromised.

this is just the first link....no one knows who this "hacker" is....could be a government.
https://invisibler.com/tor-compromised/ this is what i was referring to originally..i just happened to come across the first link by chance.
Also. the state of the onion address back in 2014 ish ..they said the NSA had compromised one of the nodes and they where trying to isolate it... then the fuck tard running the spice road got caught by using the La public library wifi twice in a row....fucking moron.

...the spice road...
silk road :)
there's another possible angle to all of this - isn't is possible that some of the exploits regarding Tor are disinformation in order to keep people away from it?
in the end i guess it's irrelevant because if one doesn't know for certain, you can't trust it anyway

Either/or, and when necessary both. Is your ISP becoming a nosey nellie (monitoring what you do online), and a chatty cathy (gossiping to TLAs or NGOs about your activities? A VPN will bitchslap both away. All the ISP will know is that you are connecting to a VPN, and not where you go after that. Paranoid that your VPN is another nosey nellie and chatty cathy? Connect to TOR through the VPN; all your VPN will know is that you are connecting to TOR, and not where you go after that. Connecting to TOR from your ISP is probably risky business. I have seen claims that Big Bro is quite interested in TOR users, has many ISPs monitoring for its use, and snitching on its users....and this is in addition to the surveillance program called X-Keyscore.

Tor is certainly an option, however users need to be aware of the several pitfalls
for a VPN, i would personally recommend - i'm currently using Nord, but will switch some time in the future - Nord is simply too big and my trust of a company decreases as its popularity increases
as for the gubmunt and ISPs interest in Tor, i don't know enough about it, but apparently all they are seeing is an encrypted connection so i'm not sure their interest would be less for VPN users since that's also encrypted ... feedback welcome

NordVPN is based in Panama, which has no mandatory data retention laws and does not participate in the Five Eyes or Fourteen Eyes alliances. It's TOS is not too bad either:
https://my.nordaccount.com/legal/terms-of-service/
I did not consider it because it does not offer GUI client for Linux. Due to dyslexia and ADD, the CLI crap is a no-go for me. After much research, I will be picking between AirVPN, Mullvad, and VPNArea. Still deciding. Only VPNArea is based in a 'safe' area (Bulgaria). The other two are in Sweden and italy.

I was unable to find the previous site that claimed ISPs were reporting TOR use to TLAs, but I'll keep looking.

i'd go with Mulvad - i've read a lot of reviews and they seem to be the most privacy conscious
depending on your setup, running a VPN on your router may be the better idea - this way all clients use it and you need not worry so much about a CLI, though just doing <program> --help will give you the info you need to know
as for the 5/14 eyes countries, i'm not entirely sure it makes a damned difference, but i suppose it doesn't hurt to avoid them

I use both, plus another layer via a private browser.
Plus, I don't do stupid shit so have nothing to worry about.

That's exactly the problem though, isn't it? I used to think that too... and that's how the patriot act was passed. None of us have real skeletons in the closet. BUT in a few years, calling someone a nigger on a forum like this will be tied directly to your identity, and then you won't get that job, or lose the one you have, or your kids get taken away while you get some racial retraining. Every search and comment will be a part of your actual identity. And since the left controls the narrative, things won't be in your favor.
The article made a good point here "our inherent right of free speech is under severe attack not only by governments, but by ourselves as individuals simply because people who believe they are being watched tend to self-censor. This is a very dangerous situation because we cannot work toward a free and transparent society if our ability to communicate is compromised."
