Balu,
Anonymity is a different issue than privacy. The problem we are trying
to solve is people reading our private conversations.
Use tor if you want anonymity. Yesterday we had a very nice discussion
at IITB about these issues and one of the things I learned is the
ability of tor to take tor traffic inside the http traffic, anyone
looking at the packets will only see big files being downloaded or
uploaded!

You have to keep reminding your government that you don't get your rights
from them; you give them permission to rule, only so long as they follow the
rules: laws and constitution.
