Does anyone know the details? Here is what I recall (I think): Three parties: A - the information provider has a list of movies (or other material) with prices B - a middleman/net owner C - a customer Some how, C gets her movie, A gets the money, and A doesn't know who her customer was, and B doesn't know which movie C is seeing. Details anyone? - Carl ANNOTATED REFERENCES (All these documents are available on-line.
