@yomiel @teto @sally >Like Tor is too slow for daily use.
Tor Browser will be too slow if all you do is run proprietary slop JavaScript, but decent webpages will load just fine.
There are certain cases where the performance of a guard degrades to worse than dial up, but improvements have been made to that and you can just temporarily change to a bridge.
>obviously no point of using it for internet banking
The bank has no business in knowing where you're connecting from, thus there is a point in using it - alas many banks will go lock the account if you try to access it via tor.
In the age of NSA spying, all browsing should really be done via tor.
>Even watching video is pretty reasonable
It's perfectly reasonably to download a 1080p video via tor and watch it later.
