Great as a way of cracking the government monopoly of information in China. Not so great as a potential tool for terrorists to coordinate their attacks.

Citing the need to promote respect for the rule of law, President Bush will shortly announce US participation in an international program to rout out these scofflaws.
Any bets?

This type of anonymous network will be used far more by pedophiles to swap pictures/mpegs than by people whose governments censor them. Most people in the middle east don't even have a computer anyways.

Pull and a bunch of crypto/privacy types are discussing this on alt.security.pgp. Might be worth a look for those interested.

Sounds like another thing that also spun off of the same group (related to the Cult of the Dead Cow). It is called
Peekabooty.

This will have a some effect in a sweeping manner. Islamic nations or countries that restrict access will now deal with the internet in full (wonder if free republic will be getting a new influx of visitors?), but also terrorists will use this to help coordinate attacks better, and perverts will use this to by pass child porn laws and continue with the smut peddling, only it will increase in nations like china and the middle east (wonder how a muslim terrorist will react to seeing doctored nakkad pics of hillary clinton?). It'll have its positives and its negatives, where this eventually winds up, we''ll have to see.
