They could have prioritized the dev (or scheduled the release/deployment):
1/ integrate some Tor-like system, and 2/ the amateur proxies feature
Actually they can still do it, by deactivating and putting the amateur proxies feature in standby temporarily while the Tor-like system is being implemented.
The very least they can do is not denying that, now they have already deployed 2/, developing 1/ is becoming an emergency.
