Because it's /connection based/ and therefore low latency, so cannot be
used by an untraceable pseudonym (endpoint IP packet correlation).

Contrast with email, where the security is /message based/ and can use
anonymizing remailers having deliberately long, random latency.

    Long, random latency is part of the price of Internet anonymity.
