The problem with using something like THOR or other encryption as example is when NSA for example catches encrypted data, they don't delete it. It's stored until some-point they can decrypt it.

That was something that came out in the Snowden leaks.. They were required to delete normal unencrypted data after a certain time period but encrypted data they can hold onto until it can be decrypted. So really you are fucked either way because eventually they will get your data.

Obviously I'm talking NSA level guys but obviously not ISP or advertisers.
