2. Tor2web optimizations
- 2.1) self-rendezvous
- In the current tor2web mode, the client establishes a 1-hop circuit (direct
- connection) to a chosen rendezvous point. We propose that, alternatively,
- the client set *itself* as the rendezvous point. This coincides with ticket
- #9685[2].
+2.1. Self-rendezvous
- 2.2) direct-introduction
- Identical to the non-tor2web mode, in the current tor2web mode, the
- client establishes a 3-hop circuit to the introduction point.
- We propose that, alternatively, the client builds a 1-hop circuit to
- the introduction point.
