There could be a combined monitoring array deployed
among all nodes that might start to answer these questions.
And further alert on all sorts of interesting network attacks
launched at Tor. Software exploits... segmentation / modulation
attacks... etc. This is perimeter security 101, and Tor
currently has no fence, no guard dogs, not even a janitor
you can ask the next day. That's beyond bad.
And big oppurtunity for new research project.
