Comment (by killerbee):

 Hi nickm,

 the first time I thought the same thing, it was the same tor that wal
 already running when I finish its command execution with ctrl + c.

 If you notice, in fact, I launch a subsequent sudo killall tor, which goes
 to free up port 9050 again.

 Later, however, when I reconnect, and tells me that everything is OK, the
 IP does not change.
