Hi Or-Dev,
I have stumbled across this torrent client. My first thoughts, upon
seeing Onion Routing in the description, was wondering if this is using
the Tor network.
I have included a link and some details about this torrent client below.
In which case, does this then mean its likely to clobber the Tor network
with p2p traffic ? - this bodes ill for Tor servers ?
Does anyone have any thoughts ?
From the main page...
"""
*Anomos* is a pseudonymous, encrypted multi-peer-to-peer file
distribution protocol. It is based on the peer/tracker concept of
BitTorrent in combination with an onion routing anonymization layer,
with the added benefit of end-to-end encryption. By combining these
technologies, we have created a platform where by no party outside of
the trusted tracker will have any information about who a peer is or
what they are downloading.
