I'm in doubt! The use of such software may be penalized!
If they have no other evidence, you go to prison for the use of it. Own goal!

In China, for instance, the computers found in some web cafes are configured to use Tor automatically. Interestingly, some police agencies even use the software to hide their activity from suspects. As filtering becomes ever more common in democratic countries such as the US, perhaps Tor (and similar tools such as <A href="http://yro.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=09/04/19/2132237&tid=158">I2P</A>), will become even more valuable."</I>
