Yes.  If that traceroute leaked out to the 'net at large - instead of
stopping within your network (vsnl, ultimately) ... that'd be stupid.

You could just do source filtering at your network for starters (with
iptables, or at your router).

For breaking large files to small chunks, there is  already an
utility called "split". see man for usage. It  breaks  a large
file into smaller userdefined chunks with the names xaa,  xab,
xac ... To rejoin them, do: '$cat x* > filename'
