Is that hop private?
- cperciva 16y agoNo more or less private than connections between EC2 nodes.
- nopal 16y agoSorry for my ignorance here, but is the connection between EC2 nodes isolated (per account), or is it shared amongst multiple accounts?
- cperciva 16y agoTheoretically traffic over the EC2 network is private. In practice, I wouldn't want to rely on the assumption that no packet ever ends up going somewhere it ought not to; nor would I want to rely on the assumption that information doesn't leak in other ways (e.g., timing side channels -- many routers leak information about recent source packet destination addresses due to the caching of routing table lookups).
