So the cell is limited by the size of the darknet subnetwork? Makes sense, but if a darknet subnetwork generally corresponds to a group or organisation then remaining anonymous within that group might not as useful as remaining anonymous within a group of strangers. > But it's fairly unlikely that two tunnels from Y both reached X, isn't it? Right, but the point I was trying to make (which really isn't very important) is that for the purposes of determining whether X is the initiator, it's irrelevant whether the attacker sees two tunnels exiting X by different paths or two tunnels exiting X by the same path. I'm not trying to say that two tunnels exiting X don't tell the attacker anything - they do. But it's irrelevant where the tunnels go after exiting X, because the routes are random. Cheers, Michael
