I'm planning to make the public key registration with the key-server completely optional, so that users who really want it, can just manually email their public keys to each other. So you can be pretty much completely invisible. Even people who try crawling the entire DHT can just know what public keys are available in the system, but they wont know which user the key belongs to. Regards Sreeram
