- chatmasta 13y agoNice. Bryan Ford (co-author of this paper) will be my advisor for my senior project next term. He's done a lot of work in the area of online privacy, including the DISSENT project, intending to create a protocol for private online discussion: http://dedis.cs.yale.edu/dissent/files/dissent.pdf http://dedis.cs.yale.edu/dissent/files/dissent.pdf. Really cool stuff. My project will be in the area of Tor bridge distribution amidst the presence of bad actors (i.e. oppressive governments). That is, how do you publish the list of Tor bridges to its userbase without an oppressive government blocking all of them? My (currently rough draft) solution will involve a tiered hierarchy of trusted nodes, with effectiveness proved by loss of efficiency for the censor. If anyone wants to talk about this feel free to message me.
