[freehaven-dev] hey neat

[Roger R Dingledine <arma@mit.edu>]

something cool freenet thought up:

documents have names. the docs are stored by H(name), and requested by
H(name). Since the server can't reverse H(), freenet users encrypt their
document with 'name' itself.

This provides isolated-server document-anonymity in freenet.
The server can't even figure out the name based on queries for that
document, because the queries all come in the form H(name).

good for them.
