I think a proxy pair (one on the net-cafe, one on the remote site) which
do steganographic hiding might be more effective. Turn images off to
keep the bandwidth down, and you're home free (if you want to be really
paranoid, make the steganographic unit entire sentences or paragraphs
from Chinese Communist Party propaganda or something. ;} )
