There are a number of better than tor projects out there. I by no means know all of them... But I know session messenger uses a tor+, I also know of i2p, xx labs were also working on new anonymized internet, and heck I've heard of at least two other tor-like crypto projects out there.
Like everything else, these projects are being developed and worked on now so none are perfect, but those people are at least working on something, right?
