Greetings, First time messaging this list.
In liu of the recent article detailing a deanonymizing attack on hidden services, I am interested to know if it is possible to run a hidden service with custom guard nodes similar to how a tor client can run with a custom bridge node. So, for example, could I run 3 servers as guard nodes and force the hidden service server to connect to them so I am assured that an attacker does not control my guard nodes? I am also interested to hear opinions on whether this would be an effective defense against the attack mentioned in the article. Here is a link to the article: http://www.cs.uml.edu/~xinwenfu/paper/HiddenServer.pdf If this isn't the right place to inquire, please direct me to a better channel. Also, I am willing to pay for a solution to this problem, so if there are any developers on the project that you can suggest I work with, please pass my inquiry on to them.
