As an avid supporter of TOR (and previous operator of a multi-megabit exit node), I do this all the time. I'm going to be anonymous dammit, and I don't care what the other side thinks. The harder you try to keep us out, the harder we work to get around it. This is a technical battle you'll never win, because there are more idealists that believe in privacy than there are un-clued admins (and LEO) that think otherwise. /mike.
