píše se to tu: http://www.wired.com/2015/11/carnegie-mellon-denies-fbi-paid-for-tor-breaking-research/
...Carnegie Mellon wrote that its Software Engineering Institute hadn’t received any direct payment for its Tor research from the FBI or any other government funder...
v tom jejich prohlášení je to vlastně taky:
...is a federally funded research and development center...
a pak:
The university abides by the rule of law, complies with lawfully issued subpoenas and receives no funding for its compliance.
Takže oni jsou federálně placení pořád, ale prý nedostali peníze přímo za ten Tor.
