Damn, looks like I need to repair my irony meter again.

If you make an outrageous claim with the intent of scaring
people into not using a particular technology, the onus is on you to
demonstrate why your claim is not, in fact, outrageous. From what
you've posted so far, it seems all you've done is notice a coincidence.
Stats 101: Correlation does not imply causation.

How about not being so condescending and give the community the proof we
need to make Tor safer, if that's actually your aim. Otherwise you're
just a troll (and we won't waste our effort replying to your bullshit).
