Check out http://freehaven.net/anonbib/#usenix11-pirtor for another step in that direction. And then http://freehaven.net/anonbib/#wpes09-dht-attack http://freehaven.net/anonbib/#ccs09-shadowwalker http://freehaven.net/anonbib/#ccs09-torsk http://freehaven.net/anonbib/#ccs10-lookup for another direction to consider. The current situation is that nobody knows of a design that, in your words, will "guarantee full independence and anonymity". The one we have is well-studied and has well-understood downsides, so I'm not eager to move to one that is poorly-studied and has poorly-understood downsides. --Roger -- tor-talk mailing list - tor-talk@lists.torproject.org To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
