It _would_ be the same private key. Good luck with generating 1.2 septillion permutations (16^32).
But could be doable in a few years so to answer your question, I believe there can only be one published in the HSDIR, so first come first served. Facebook's would have to be DDOS / shutdown and then the forged one can be spun up and published. Please correct me if I'm wrong as I've only been researching Tor since 2015. > On Mar 4, 2016, at 3:23 PM, Mirimir <[email protected]> wrote: > >> On 03/04/2016 01:03 PM, Andreas Krey wrote: >>> On Fri, 04 Mar 2016 19:55:01 +0000, Flipchan wrote: >>> IF i generate a .onion domain , isnt there a risk that someone can generate >>> the same domain?
