Funny that he said he doesn't go to weird sites and then he says he uses Tor:

NSA likely targets anybody who's 'Tor-curious'

Seriously weird sites are only accessible over Tor

Not saying he meant hidden services but he could have.[1]

Also, if you want to visit a very weird site on clearnet[2], it's probably still better to use Tor than to not use Tor, especially if you're already targeted like whistle blowers. Or what would you recommend them to do?

But you shouldn't use Tor to browse normal sites, yes. That's leaving a too big footprint.
