muki: Yer I am aware about what happens when people don't use Tor for what it is made for. People seem to mix it up as a secure way of transmitting data, but the last hop from the Tor endnode to the destination is send in plain text meaning all end nodes can sniff your data if you do not use some end to end encryption.

BOFH: That is part of the reason yes, I have been carrying out tests with Tor for abit now an wanting to see how portable this can be. A roaming Tor endnode in a university with there high speed connection should gather more traffic BUT would also like to have the use of tor when I need to be seen coming from another location an don't have a good proxy at hand

free: yer I do want to run one on the n800, it would not be running full time like
brendan: Thanks for that, I will set that up at home anyway.

muki: Yer I know what ya mean some of these Tor endnode are hosted on very VERY costly servers that have a dam site lot of traffic pass through them an like you said hosted by some very shady charectors.
