Which reduces "globally scalable darknet" to "clusters of dark nodes hanging off the opennet". The result of which is that it does not tell us anything about the viability of the global darknet. And WHEN, not if, the opennet is compromized, there is no global darknet. Just a few disconnected nodes. > > Ian. -- Matthew J Toseland - [EMAIL PROTECTED] Freenet Project Official Codemonkey - http://freenetproject.org/ ICTHUS - Nothing is impossible. Our Boss says so.
