Compromised ? Maybe, but this guy doesn't provide any evidence one way or the other. He's using at least 7 other possible vectors (apparently Calculator Photo Vault just hides the gallery, no encryption, so it's over right there) which is way too many for good opsec.
With Tor the question has always been compromised exit nodes as I understand it.

Not against a government that can compel the organizations who issue the https certificates and run the https servers. And not against leaks that occur outside of https.
