Tor enables content that work can't monitor or block. And it's associated with child porn, dark web drug networks, sex trafficking, and similar. In reality, it's a small part of Tor. In the media, that's all it's used for.

The biggest use statistically is bot and malicious traffic.

> Based on data across the CloudFlare network, 94% of requests that we see across the Tor network are per se malicious.

This needs to be compared to clearnet for it to paint an accurate picture, which has reached 64% recently[1]. Though this figure comes from summing "good bots" with "bad bots", Cloudflare seems to have done the same ("automated requests", "content scraping").
