A quote which worries me:
"Tor servers meet the definition of an Internet service provider,
which means that operators are not required to know what data passed
through the server, said Kevin Bankston, staff attorney with the
Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF)"

If TOR would legally qualify as an ISP, we're in deep trouble.
Keyword: the upcoming data-retention laws in Europe.
