So, I set it up and spent most of a weekend doing traceroute's to various interesting sites - nothing too interesting, mind you.

Based on that limited, early testing, I concluded TOR is a honeypot, and never played with it again.And for things like TOR, you pretty much have to assume everything you send are being monitored.
