Identify users (ie on IRC)

The <a href="http://tor.eff.org/docs/tor-hidden-service.html" title="eff.org">Tor Hidden Services</a eff.org> provide you an anonymous "hostname" like 6sxoyfb3h2nvok2d.onion. As far as I can see this could be used for example to identify (and block) IRC clients and retain privacy.
