Tor and Arweave are opposites.

Tor has content on one physical spot, then hides that spot.

Arweave has all content served everywhere, making it hard to monitor who is accessing it. And if a DNS lookup is done correctly, then your VPN can't see what content you're accessing, since ALL content is served from that gateway IP.

Tor Onions:

6 hops

1 physical location

Slow

Censored if discovered

Private Onion key on server

Arweave:

2 Hops

No Central Location

Fast

Censored if all nodes individually decide to

Domain Private key stays in your wallet

thanks for writing in, so Arweave stores stuff directly on the blockchain, and has a CDN to distribute it.

but IPFS stores it on nodes temporarily, and this is disconnected from delivery. It lacks a built-in CDN, and requests community people to run it. But there is nobody running it
