Dave,
Seems the server confiscation was not directed at tor. The tor
servers were just a few of many confiscated in a mass round-up of
servers that may or may not have been involved.
BoingBoing has a piece on it:

For IP, perhaps.
According to
http://itnomad.wordpress.com/2006/09/10/germany-crackdown-on-tor-
node-operators/
some Tor servers have been seized, allegedly because they were used to
view or distribute child pornography. Of course, Tor servers are
just a
conduit, just as the Internet itself is just a conduit. It's the
anonymity service that's apparently troubling law enforcement.
