Defense.I played around with the Vidalia component a few years back (a little clunky but what do you expect?) and think it's a fascinating project. Others may find it so as well.

I've seen similar things, but they were cumbersome. I worry about the delays and connectivity issues, but perhaps a larger distributed network would solve some of that.
It's seems to be more of an arms race then anything else. Those who want to be invisible on the grid and those who want to see everything (governments come to mind) will be in a perpetual struggle, but I don't see legal frameworks being particularly effective because I don't believe they can be adequately enforced or enacted fast enough to keep up with the technology.
