You wouldn't have to, you'd just need to contribute to TOR

This could be accomplished by intercepting the outgoing call (like VICaR does, and placing a call to the google voice number instead.
Intercepting a call and then doing a GV call with the intercepted account as the direct-call or callback account is a very interesting idea. Only solves the phone part and not SMS but that is fine for some people (like me). I doubt I'd have to for it but I bet it wouldn't be hard to adapt ViCaR's source with qgvdial and away you go.


Except for the people who optimize like crazy and refuse all Python apps, Python does offer a great experience for getting feedback from users. Rather than a "It crashed" you get a full traceback without any additional special tools or builds. I'd highly recommend learning it (and contributing to TOR/Dialcentral )
