Its not my problem. But it WILL be for network admins. I am the
"worst nightmare" guy

I run my own online talk show as well,

An interesting thing about the Internet is that it provides soapboxes
to all who can afford them, whether law abiding or not, and
whether ethical or not.

Well, Professional-level broadcast accounts can get stats on where
people are connecting from, and as of right now, there is someone
connected to my station using a Tor node in Bergen, Norway. It could be
the caller that was on my show the other day, or someone else who heard
it. I am currently on holiday for this week to watch the eclipse from
down in French Guiana, so I am not running any shows this week, and I
have music in the storage space provided by Live 365, which kicks on
whenver there is no live broadcast, and the user through the Tor
network signed on at 2:01 PM Pacific Daylight Time, according to the
stats, and is still on at 3:27PM Pacific Daylight Time. If it is
someone listening to my station from work, the boss will NEVER KNOW
what is going on becuase the data stream is encrypted. Plus, Live 365
VIP listeners, which this listener is, also get 128-bit SSH/SSL
encryption, so even without Tor, the outgoing data would still be
encrypted. With a data stream that has been encrypted twice, once by
Live 365, and then again by Tor, if somone at their work is listening,
being that it is still the workday in the western part of North
America, the boss will never find out what happened.
For any network admins reading this, at this time, that person
could be in YOUR shop listening to my station, and right under your
nose, and you would have no CLUE what was going in, primarily becuase I
keep the bitrate, when the automated music kicks on from Live 365, just
enough to keep good enough fidelity, but low enough where the bandwidth
usage, per hour, would be no more than what an average Web download
would be, amounting to only a few megabytes, so it will not stick out
like a sore thumb when bahdwidth statistics are compiled, When I do my
talk show, oir we broadcast anything else live, I drop the bandwidth
usage down even further. a 12K bitrate is low enough for talk radio, or
to broadcast figure skating, or other sporting events. I raise it to
24K when the automtic music from Live 365 kicks on after live
broadcasting is finished.
