Not that we know of. Tor uses ephemeral keys for all encryption exchanges. If your adversary can crack the rsa encryption in under 10 minutes, nothing is going to help you. : 2) how can i trust the person who runs the tor's exit node? You don't. By design, your tor client doesn't trust the tor network. We routinely scan for misbehaving nodes, notify the operators, and/or simply drop them off the network. Otherwise, the vast majority of nodes are run by people like you trying to help others and increase their own anonymity by mixing their tor circuits with others. -- Andrew Lewman The Tor Project pgp 0x31B0974B Website: https://torproject.org/ Blog: https://blog.torproject.org/ Identi.ca: torproject *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to majord...@torproject.org with unsubscribe or-talk in the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
