Re: Good

It doesn't make sense to censor a "free", anonymous network.

No, but to these people (and a lot of others), it obviously does.

By this same logic, we should actively sniff the entire internet for traffic that matches signatures/some Bayesian rules for child pornography, and no-questions-asked immediately lay the banhammer down on them. It's just ridiculous.

I'd like to do this now. Can you suggest what bit patterns I might be able to filter out? If I add "00", "01", "10", and "11" do you think that will be enough to catch it?

Seriously though, how exactly do you recognize and filter out a particular picture, video, etc of something illegal from something that isn't?

You don't/cant, which is why the whole notion is equally as absurd when it comes to expecting that they'll **magically** do the same with the Tor network. That was my point, although I confused even myself in the process of formulating it.
