Hmmm...
Until privacy is a feature across many/most hosting services, anyone
specializing it is, in effect, identifying traffic that is likely to be
/more/ interesting for those wishing to inspect the data.
In other words, anything that explicitly identifies traffic as
attempting greater privacy is likely to be a greater target for attack.
