Dissent: "Seeking Anonymity in an Internet Panopticon"

mirimir · Jun 27, 2014

This is a very intriguing paper by Joan Feigenbaum and Bryan Ford at Yale University. There's a working draft at http://arxiv.org/abs/1312.5307. They propose a new type of anonymity network:

Dissent represents the first anonymity system designed from the ground up to incorporate countermeasures for each of the major classes of known vulnerabilities in existing approaches, including global traffic analysis, active attacks, and intersection attacks [17, 25]. Finally, because no anonymity protocol alone can address risks such as software exploits or accidental self-identification, the Dissent project’s deliverables include WiNon, an experimental operating system architecture to harden the uses of anonymity tools such as Tor and Dissent against such attacks.
