showmyip.com has now added Tor network presence history data to show when an IP Address has been part of the Tor network over the previous 7 days. This presence history data shows date and time, actual bandwidth, Tor software version, uptime, Exit Policy and more. As well, subscribers to our IP Address Lookup service get 2 additional features: 31 days of presence history rather than 7 days, and the ability to specify any date to check.
German police, or anyone else, can now go to pickaproxy.com, select their country of choice, and from the list of Tor network nodes in that country, perform a Lookup on that IP Address to learn when in the previous 7 or 31 days that IP Address was active in the Tor network.
By adding a &date=20080131 parameter to this lookup, for example, a subscriber could get this presence history data to show from January 1-31, 2008.
Presence history data is also checked for all IP Addresses that are not currently a Tor network node. Previously if an IP Address was not currently a Tor network node, it would simply be indicated as such. Now it will be identified if it was part of the Tor network in the previous 7 or 31 days.
These new features are currently implemented in the HTML and XML interfaces on showmyip.com, ippages.com and lookupip.com, and will be added to our RSS, SOAP and simple text interfaces in the short term.
