German news reports that German authorities were able to de-anonymize a Tor user.

The Tor Project says the danger seems to have been overstated.

The nonprofit organization that maintains the Tor network says the user in question was only using an outdated service that had not been updated.

The German case stemmed from an investigation into an online child sexual abuse network.
