    Basically a trap made to look tempting or valuable, ex: police run a site to buy illegal stuff for cheap to catch the people trying to buy it, like catching flies that want the honey

    In this case if Tor Browser is a honeypot it means feds run the majority of nodes and would have a high chance of being able to easily identify users.
