Phobos,

 XeroBank's network doesn't use Tor. Common misnomer. But we did stay at a holiday inn express:

 XeroBank uses IPSec cascades and is distinguished by have additional anonymity
 features tor doesn't employ such as mixing, crowding optimization, channel multiplexing, traffic
 padding, fingerprint/watermark dropping, timing-attack resistance; and properties tor
 doesn't have such as immunity to sybil attacks and exit node traffic injection. :)
