I2P has protection against timing attacks.
Bitmessage has deniability, but if the receiver end is compromised or untrustworthy, then the deniability is gone, and the timing attack might be possible.
Combining Bitmessage and I2P would be solution, I think, but I don't know of any Bitmessage nodes on I2P.

- tlb 13y agoNot really. From the I2P FAQ: Without protocol scrubbing or higher latency, global active adversaries can gain substantial information. As such, people concerned with these attacks could increase the latency (using nontrivial delays or batching strategies), include protocol scrubbing, or other advanced tunnel routing techniques, but these are unimplemented in I2P Bitmessage is only plausibly deniable, meaning a traffic analysis is likely to narrow down the list of senders to a few, which is good enough in a manhunt.
