The dark network of the future will be an onion-routed Hyphanet/Freenet, with monthly "bandwidth quotas" that make links communicate uniformly at X GB/hr regardless of traffic (padding when there is none) until the monthly quota is hit right at the end of the month. If internodal links don't vary in externally measurable ways when utilized, netflow is diminished.
- Jerrrrrrry 2y agoI2P with more steps and crypto-enforced minimum quotes to deter timing/correlative attacks. Minimally-enforced "random" timeouts to prevent DDoS->outage correlation. Also mirrors. Lots of mirrors. Have mirrors tied to reputation tied to invites. Then the border to entry is time + money + reputation(which is time + money) Throw in some 0-KPz, and you are 100% chillin in Belize or 100% in Colorado-ADX (in minecraft, hypothetically, to sell beets, i ♥ us)
- orbisvicis 2y agoDoesn't i2p also use this model?
- immibis 2y agoi2p is a bit harder because the circuits aren't end-to-end. Your traffic goes through typically 3 relays, then an all-to-all mixing where it goes directly to the start of the recipient's relay chain, then 3 of their chosen relays. A new connection is NOT set up through the whole network for each overlay connection - it uses your same outgoing relay chain, and your last relay sends the packet to the first relay in the recipient's incoming relay chain. It also uses a separate chain in each direction which makes any attack based on observing timing both ways more difficult. It's also not Sybil resistant at all.
