Why is tor a honeypot?

I wouldn't call it a honeypot, but it's probably compromised by the feds.

It was shown a few years back that if you control enough of the exit nodes (more than some specific % that I don't remember off the top of my head) then you can associate traffic across most/all of the Tor network. Since running exit nodes is relatively cheap the assumption was that the feds (or some other state actor) were already doing so.

I'd call that materially different than a honeypot though since it wasn't designed for that purpose.
