Welcome to the twenty-seventh issue of Tor Weekly News in 2014, the
weekly newsletter that covers what is happening in the XXX Tor community.

+On being targeted by the NSA
+----------------------------
-Feature 1 with cited source [XXX]
+Das Erste has published an article [XXX] and backing material [XXX] on
+how the NSA explicitly targets Tor and Tails user through the XKEYSCORE
+Deep Packet Inspection system. Several other media picked up the news
+and it was also discussed through several threads on the tor-talk mailing
+list [XXX,XXX,XXX,XXX,XXX,XXX,XXX].
- [XXX]:
+The Tor Project's view has been reposted [XXX] on the blog. To a comment that
+said “I felt like i am caught in the middle of a two gigantic rocks colliding
+each other”, Roger DingleDine replied [XXX]: “You're one of the millions of
+people every day who use Tor. And because of the diversity of users […], just
+because they know you use Tor doesn't mean they know *why* you use Tor, or what
+you do with it. That's still way better than letting them watch all of your
+interactions with all websites on the Internet.”
