    Just a double take on this point, I can't see any reason why you can't have
    a local socks server running and socksify all your file sharing
    applications. If you configure the socks server to connect to
    localhost:4001, there's no reason why your connection to the file sharing
    system can't be anonymous and encrypted. The actually transfer itself
    though would be unencrypted between you and the other file sharer.
