That would not be the tracking of a request (nitpicking terminology here) but, rather, that you could be busted if They found your trust list. I don't think this is all that much of an issue since you'll probably have the information on your hard drive anyway, so then They can just bust you for having the information. Even if you filtered requests client-side (throw out non-matching ones) then you'd still have to keep the public keys on your hard drive. I don't see how transmitting the public key over the wire lessens anonymity at all. > I do agree that request-based filtering is more flexible than > insert-based though.
