Tor "plays only a minor role in the online viewing and distribution of indecent images of children," according to a briefing to Britain's Parliament by the Child Exploitation and Online Protection Command (CEOP) of the U.K. National Crime Agency. "Some argue for a Tor without hidden services, because of the criminal content on some THS [Tor Hidden Services]," it reads. "However, [Tor Hidden Services] also benefit non-criminal Tor users because they may add a further layer of user security. If a user accesses a THS the communication never leaves the Tor Network and the communication is encrypted from origin to destination. Therefore, sites requiring strong security, like whistleblowing platforms are offered as THS. Also, computer experts argue that any legislative attempt to preclude THS from being available in the UK would be technologically infeasible." http://www.dailydot.com/politics/uk-briefing-tor-child-abuse-minor-role/ ура
