Re: [tor-talk] General questions about Tor proxy

And your intuition might be (mine was) that removing those small relays
really harms diversity (and thus anonymity), but actually, Tor's load
balancing and path selection means those relays are very rarely chosen
anyway, so they don't contribute much to the anonymity the Tor network
can provide.

The small relays do not help, that's for sure, except for bridges maybe, now where is documented the path selection?

Because, without any research work, it's obvious that selecting big relays does expose you to several nodes in the path controlled by the same entity, therefore deanonymizing you.
