You could flood the rendevousz points in order to block the access to an
hidden service, this type of attack is better described in a document
which should be online in the tor svn but I cannot find it anymore[1]. I'm
sorry to be so vague.
Does anyone have a link to the description of avalaible attacks on the tor
network?
