If you control the TOR exit node you can see the real traffic.

Would you like to state why that's "the dumbest fucking thing you've heard on here"?

Seriously, please stop trying to educate people on this topic because you are seriously misinformed.

I run an exit node and I am well familiar with TOR network. Please explain to me or point me to an article that shows how to get a TOR exit node users real IP.

TOR exit nodes can be sniffed to reveal all the traffic passing through them. So if you view a youtube video, which most people here do, your IP is compromised because of the flash plugin. You have to be VERY careful using TOR it's not fool proof and most here aren't tech savy and want to be able to watch the videos presented. Thats one way, there are more.

Care to explain why a private VPN is the dumbest thing you've ever heard? Would you rather give you information to a commercial VPN so thay can give it up when they get a subpoena?

Edit: I shouldn't say you IP "is" compromised, but it could be through the flash plugin.
