    No. Use it for everyday tasks. If Tor is used by only people who need them, they will be easily detected. The whole reason US Navy released Tor to public was so normal users can scramble the usage detection. One more advantage is that right now lot of website block tor users if more users will use tor then they might stop it.

        More usage means more visibility which means more recognition and thus more funding

        Maybe, but the added obfuscation is probably worth it to the people who need it.

        A slower connection is better than ending up in prison, the re-education camps or worse, beheaded.

        Without average Joe’s using it for nonsense Tor usage is basically a neon sign saying “I’m doing something worth hiding. Come and kill me.”
