- 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.
