Not sure about the security benefits of using Tor with OSM but I have messed with it in the past and the performance can be pretty poor and probably not great for an interactive Potlatch session. I've also read somewhere that flash apps can easily give away your local IP even when using Tor.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
is anyone contributing to OpenStreetMap by using Tor? (the onion router)<br>
Is there any opinion from anyone about this? Tor is used to strengthen<br>
ones privacy by the technology trying to prevent revealing the ip<br>
address of the user.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Niklas<br>
