Analyzing TOR-exitnodes for anomalies

Hi all,

considering that I heard from several people that they notice strange
sideeffects since a couple of days - altered webpage, advertisement where no
ads should be - I started a little investigation if there are any obviously
bogus exitnodes in the wild:

I welcome you to start your own investigation; if there are really bogus
exitnodes we should be aware of those and we should know their node's nickname
to put them on a shitlist.

This might leed to an escalation in the future when marketeers realize the
possibilities of altering traffic.

Comments, ideas, pointers to other projects?

Alex.
