I played around with sonification of network traffic once upon a time, using kismet, tcpdump and fluidsynth glued together with a bit of perl. You can listen to the results here: http://sonification.eu/ To avoid the privacy issues with monitoring exit node traffic, perhaps you could run this on the client's LAN, producing two pieces of music, one for unanonymised traffic and the other for the same traffic passed through Tor? Then we'd know what privacy sounds like. :-) Cheers, Michael
