Sorry if this has been beaten to death before (if it has, a pointer to where it is in the archives would be appreciated), but is it possible to chain anonymizing proxy servers in a way similar to remailers?
Depends on the user interfaces of the anonymizing proxies - a system that lets you request what you want in the URL may let you do more than a system that insists you type stuff in blanks, but on the other hand, http://anon.foo.com/proxy/anon.bar.com/proxy/anon.zork.com/proxy/thoughtcrim e.com/ lets the everything in the chain see that you're really trying to reach thoughtcrime.com, while a succession of SSL-encrypted forms popping up that you fill in the blanks on may be harder to automate, but more secure. # Thanks; Bill # Bill Stewart, +1-415-442-2215 stewarts@ix.netcom.com # You can get PGP outside the US at ftp.ox.ac.uk/pub/crypto/pgp # (If this is a mailing list or news, please Cc: me on replies.
