Percolating networks based on interparticle tunneling conduction are shown to yield a logarithmic divergent piezoresistive response close to the critical point as long as the electrical conductivity becomes nonuniversal. At the same time, the piezoresistivity or, equivalently, the conductivity anisotropy exponent $\lambda$ remains universal also when the conductive exponent is not, suggesting a purely geometric origin of $\lambda$. We discuss our results in relation to the nature of transport for a variety of materials such as carbon-black--polymer composites and RuO_2-glass systems which show nonuniversal transport properties and coexistence between tunneling and percolating behaviors.
