An interesting idea about using Tor for error reporting: ​https://micahflee.com/2013/12/two-really-simple-things-microsoft-can-do-to-make-windows-more-secure-against-nsa/

Windows, and every other operating system, should come with Tor installed. When software wants to send “anonymous error reports,” or “anonymous usage data to improve our service,” or anything else like that, they should actually make it anonymous by proxying those requests through the Tor network.
