I'm sure they don't care that you know their IP, you can't really do anything with it can you?

This is just an unfortunate result of the internet really.. anyone can do anything if you've got an editable website and the only way to stop them is to have 24/7 moderation by a team of people which is quite hard to do!

You mean in the good way right?
I mean, Tor is great. Of course if you do it for bad things what should they do? dromp the network?.
Tor is brillian, and if can contribuite with my pc I will do it, but I have no the enought bandwith to be considered a server

.

The best would it be if everyone would be connected in tor.

TOR is nice in theory, but in practice if you run an endpoint you'll soon find yourself banned from editing wikipedia and viewing your web mail accounts, you'll get letters from your ISP about spam and otherwise abusive online behaviour, possibly even the police knocking on your door about the child porn you've been uploading to file hosting sites and the death threats you've made on youtube.
It's the kind of thing I'd recommend others to run, but not actually do it myself.

About wikipedia, that was resolved time ago. In that time you even can not edit if were registered (even worst like guesst). Now if you have register in wikipedia -and don't remember but asking, i think- there is not any problem in editing. Of course if you are not registered you can not edit cause the TOR ip are forbidden in this case.

I have used without any problem in my several account (mail, blog, videos, etc) never any advice (in youtube I have not tried, cause Tor makes my connection 1/3 slower). I have not tried neither with comment in youtube.Let me try and I will see.
About pornography TOR has quite well explained how to avoid successfully (if you are a sever) that this kind of material go through your pc.

Anyway, the reason that TOR should be use in cases that you want either your ISP or the endpoint web site to don't know what are you doing and from where are you doing, respectively. I wouldn't use it for "national securities" themes of course

.

The ONLY fail of TOR -of course if you use scripted connection

- is what is explain in its page. -They can assume for time watching from point-point watching if your are the one who is accessing that endpoint web.
But that is a stupidity, if someone has the resource to do this and you are so "dangerous" to be watched this way, possible you end with a missile in your house before this watching

.

.

By the way, ISP or police has not knocked in my door, but i am not a server just a user.
There is other kinda-system like tor (enough fast for security you obtain) I think is called Jam (from Deuschtland) or something like that.
There are troll battles between both developers, you must see it!, they accuse each other to be a CIA spyes!.
After seeing that super-troll-CIA- battle I gave a technical KO to TOR

.
But that is only my opinion.

From an IP you can find an ISP and the suburb they live in.
