: Steven J. Murdoch. "Hot or Not: Revealing Hidden Services by
their Clock Skew"; Nicholas Hopper, Eugene Y. Vasserman, and Eric
Chan-Tin. "How much anonymity does network latency leak?".
(Full disclosure: I'm one of the authors of the second paper).
"Furthermore, we show
ds to have access
to the Tor network in the first place to notify the bridge authority
that a bridge is blocked. This is perhaps a lesser problem than the
first one.
I'm not sure this item CAN have a workable solution...
Thoughts?
Thanks,
