While it has had funding from some sources we don’t necessarily trust, it’s still entirely open source and the code has been combed through repeatedly.

When it comes to privacy apps, I’d place significantly more trust in something like that than literally anything closed source or unscrutinized to that degree.

Sorry, I wasn't trying to imply that we should not trust it.

I was merely implying that there's a major difference between the model behind TOR and that of Firefox.

And also similarities: if TOR is funded by entitities we don't trust and it turns out to work fine, then Firefox, being "funded" by Google should not have to be a severe problem either.
