However, in my experience bees are attracted to sugary material like honey even though they themselves make it. And a Google image search returns many results as well: http://images.google.com/images?q=honeypot+bee
Of course, this doesn't help you when the police knocks down your door because you merely connected, even though Tor encourages you to run your machine as a proxy itself to get deniability -- and I even recall hearing about a Tor "virus" that provides deniability of even running the program. All very well if you're in a country with rule of law, not so much if the local party-officer says you're going down for Googling Tianamen Square.
