So nice idea, you know."Īnother option for accessing Yelp and other sites that block access to Tor is to use the Ixquick proxy. "what they've done is they've solved the performance problem."Įven moving to IPv6, let alone adding dramatic protocol level crypto stuff into the packet management and switching of our routers. "The problem is, if you have near real-time, then there's even more ability to do traffic pattern analysis. Need minimal work per router, meaning that it's only doing symmetric crypto on the Routing at the IP level, not four layers up at the application level. " what HORNET is, is an academic exercise in the idea of onion Second-generation routers? And of course, unfortunately, it'll never happen." "These guys asked the question, what if we upgraded, updated, had HORNET more specifically is evaluated from a high level by an outsider as part of the Security Now podcast sn-518. HORNET uses IP-level routing and Tor has an official response to IP routing that I read years ago somewhere on the web site.
