-143 Improvements of Distributed Storage for Tor Hidden Service
- Descriptors
-
- Here's a proposal from Karsten about making the hidden
- service DHT more reliable and secure to use. It could use
- more discussion and analysis. We should look into it as part
- of efforts to improve designs for the next generation of
- hidden services.
-
- One problem with the analysis here, though, is that it
- assumes a fixed set of servers that doesn't change. One
- reason that we upload to N servers at each chosen point in
- the ring is that the hidden service host and the hidden
- service client may have different views of which servers
- exist. We need to re-do the analysis with some fraction of
- recent consensuses.

- This is probably superseded by proposal 224; we should close it
- IMO. (2/2014)
