The soap opera was the part where someone tried to filter tor traffic on moral grounds which is obviously not feasible. > Obviously malware writers will use Tor for various purposes, but connecting > to a C&C via Tor would not make sense since they have the largest anonymising > botnet themselves. It would still be the question what the botnet is for - anonymization isn't usually the goal. Using a hidden service for C&C access gets you around all the stuff with fastflux deployment. Which in turn makes me wonder: How much code change and deployment would it take to take down (as in 'make inaccessible via the tor network') a given hidden service? Andreas -- "Totally trivial.
