Using the software Tortunnel
http://www.thoughtcrime.org/software/tortunnel/
it is easy to setup a 1-hop proxy through a selected exit node,
even if the node has AllowSingleHopExits set to 0 (default).
Maybe i'm being alarmist, but this seems like abuse waiting to happen -
a disaster for exit node operators and for network capacity re:p2p.
If this isnt fixable in a few days i'll be switching to non-exit.
