I love how they describe VoIP traffic as "revenue leakage", characterizing it as "unauthorized" or "illegal": http://www.narus.com/products/discover.html As if somehow ISPs have to protect themselves from people *gasp* sending _data_ over the pipes. Now, I know that Tor is not intended for high-bandwidth usage -- what is? IIP, maybe? I don't know about the various alternatives. - Tim McCormack
