Is this a right way? As this still relies on the users to get active and change their settings it's probably a good idea to combine it with a Tor node that allows (only) exits to your NTTP port. This way Tor clients of lazy users should automatically pick your node as exit and you can detect these requests on their IP addresses as well. If I remember correctly this only works from the second connection on, but I assume most of your user use the first connection to fetch new articles anyway, therefore this shouldn't be a problem.
