I proposed the idea of encrypting all sorts of communication, but it was
forgotten, so I also like very much the idea. However, if your ISP detects a
lot of encrypted traffic in rare ports it may also block you. It's also a
matter of how you send the data as well as what you share. Having a few
connections lasting for hours is suspicious.
The biggest problem of this is that the gnutella protocol team must agree, but
if it finally succeeds, everyone will have protection against RIAA & friends,
ISP blocking, etc.
Best regards,
