Good idea. But the problem is, the gopher community's so small that
you'd only get a very small number exit/entry nodes. A high level of
exit/entry nodes (to my understanding) essential to any Tor-style
anonymity network. Or would this 'piggyback' (my term) on the tor
network? I can't really get how you're planning on doing it, but from
the wording I'd presume the former (an individual tor-like network).
