I think you are pushing this too far. Each TCP package you generate
uses services of lots of network hardware (and software!) which isn't
free. That's why, among lots of other reasons, we have free software -
so we can be sure our data is safe and we wouldn't give valuable
information to someone who shouldn't have it.

It's impossible to have a free service. I mean, even sourceforge
(mother ship of open source software) isn't free. It's even 'less free'
than Mozilla's services.
