A blog post that envisions Tor working as part of mainstream infrastructure.

"
Tor protocol enables end-to-end encrypted communications between 
computers — eg: Tor Browser on your laptop at one end, and an Onion Site 
at the other.

This is not only decentralised and distributed, it is disintermediated 
communication: there’s no DNS-name to be censored, nor spoofed nor 
hijacked, there’s no fixed network route to be blocked, there’s no 
firewall to be bypassed nor a single big ISP router to be DDoSed by some 
attacker.
"

He also faintly disagrees with Andrew Lewman about the "dark web", for 
those into name dropping and keyword doping ;)
