I've also used Tor for this purpose, as long as I'm not doing personal
stuff (or only encrypted personal stuff) through it (otherwise, there's
the risk of exit eavesdropping problems).
AFAIK, the only other piece of info that'd be available, is they could
determine that you're using Tor. Tor should obscure everything else. =:o)
