Perhaps a more constructive approach is to help define what the golden standard for a true tor router should be at https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/Torouter. There are a bunch of open tickets and design questions which need thought, research, and solutions.
If someone wants to take this golden standard and turn it into a shipping product, great. Best of luck. There is clearly a demand for it and more people willing to pay for something than to build their own.
Out of curiosity, has anyone reached out to the guys running the Kickstarter?
"Hey, I'm from the Tor Project and we noticed a few issues with your design, would you mind hopping on the mailing list so that we can help you work these out and provide a safer and more secure product to your customers?"
It's entirely possible that they are unaware of the lists or the issues with their design. I imagine if they care about their product and not just the possibly literal boat loads of money they are about to make, they'd be open to the idea.
Thank you, Derric Atzrott
