Ehm okay, like everybody else too.. Tor is a bit half way there: - by not providing bidirectional authentication it favors client/server architectures even when routing by public key. where it bidirectional, doing e2e apps would be more easy. - by artificially trying to provide real-time performance Tor is unnecessarily easier to de-anonymize by traffic shaping. A fix called "alpha mixing" is however in the planning since 2006. - various other minor issues with the DHT etc to be fixed... > - Military MANETs Mobile Ad Hoc Networks e.g. > https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/charter-ietf-manet/ > > - Zeta Cartel wireless network, > http://www.wired.com/2012/11/zeta-radio/ heard of these, but didn't think they could be employed this way. will look into them. > - the blockchain...etc.. Bitmessage seems to perform better than I originally expected... because it does not use plain blockchain technology. Blockchain as such must theoretically run into scalability issues as popularity increases, according to my understanding of physics. -- E-mail is public!
