http://freenetproject.org/faq.html#attack I have heavily updated the attacks section on the FAQ (after adding a section on browsers). We more or less said that Tor provides anonymity and we don't on it before, which simply isn't true; Tor does not protect against advanced (presumably meaning global) traffic analysis, and depending on which attacks you take seriously doesn't protect against compromise of the majority of nodes either, the two examples given. Freenet provides a different kind of anonymity, and in some cases it is safer than Tor; in some cases Tor is safer. And it will improve significantly with the tunnels implementation we will hopefully have in 0.9. _______________________________________________ Tech mailing list [email protected] http://emu.freenetproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tech
