Ah ok. Well the original criticisms still stand: ARKs are no different
to any other keys, and any public gateway will be shut down or used to
identify nodes/users.

Rendezvous transports may be more realistic for such extreme cases where
we can't connect to a single node... These are low-bandwidth things we
use to exchange a few bytes. Email, IRC, Jabber, SMS, DNS cache
exploits...
