Tortunnel is not a separate network, but (ab)uses existing Tor exits. My guess would be that tortunnel users - client only - don't think a lot about adding exit relays to Tor. It's not developed any longer, and I don't think many are using it anyway. I agree with Stephen that it's not "per se" a threat to the Tor network. > I can't help but think that there are indeed > other use cases that would greatly benefit > from a independent simpler transport-type > lower-layer that tor could ride on. Have you looked at I2P? http://www.i2p2.de/techintro.html It for example allows both users and services to specify their hop length, and uses packet switching instead of circuit switching. -- Moritz Bartl GPG 0xED2E9B44 http://moblog.wiredwings.com/ *********************************************************************** To unsubscribe, send an e-mail to [email protected] with unsubscribe or-talk in the body. http://archives.seul.org/or/talk/
