Another important point to make about OLSRd based mesh networks is that
each user has a static IP address based on the MAC address of their
device. Will this can be seen as a feature in many ways (i.e. you can
establish persistent services at known IP addresses even if people move
around physically), it does remove the ability to be anonymous at the IP
layer.

I wouldn't say this along makes triangulation possible, but it does make
logging of activity, and building up of a profile easier.
