I'm not aware of any deployed systems that actively make use of PIR, but percy++ is an implementation of Ian Goldberg's PIR algorithm: http://percy.sourceforge.net/ Radu Sion has also done some excellent work on advanced PIR algorithms; they're included in Lipmaa's extensive list of PIR papers in the academic literature: http://research.cyber.ee/~lipmaa/crypto/link/protocols/oblivious.php Other libraries include Dan Boneh's cPIR library: http://crypto.stanford.edu/pir-library/ --Len. _______________________________________________ p2p-hackers mailing list p2p-hackers@lists.zooko.com http://lists.zooko.com/mailman/listinfo/p2p-hackers
