  No, it's an article about research paper. Please don't mislead moderators.

    The article adds nothing on top of the paper besides a few remarks about other attacks. HN should uphold a higher standard than that. Link to the source.

    Hmm. This is a borderline case. The article mostly lifts from the paper, especially the diagrams. On the other hand, HN often prefers the best popular article on a story, with the specialized paper linked in the comments. The reason is that specialized papers are less accessible to a general-interest audience. That said, papers in computing are an exception because the audience here is informed in that field. And the thread, at this point, provides a lot of context. Given the above I think the paper is probably the better URL, and we've changed to it from http://thestack.com/chakravarty-tor-traffic-analysis-141114 http://thestack.com/chakravarty-tor-traffic-analysis-141114. Marking this subthread as obviously off-topic.
