   German police raided homes of members of a privacy group that runs Tor exit nodes.

   Their excuse was an unrelated blog called for violence at a right-wing event, this blog uses Riseup email, and the privacy group handles European donations for Riseup.

      since there are many forms of violence, I would feel more comfortable when it's described more specific. Even so it's true, can it has an negative impact on the discourse, where those that call for sabotage get stigmaticed. The violent form sabotage creates a specific context under which reasons violence accure, and that it's directed towards disturbing or blocking something, rather then creating physical pain for others.
