No, but I see that someone with a fulltime connection or even a fulltime machine with an hourly or half hourly dialup would setup a program to send randomly generated "Null:" messages to the randomly selected remailers so that when he does have something to send that is meaningful it will not change the apparent flow ...
And why does this by any security when it's the header info and contents that Mallet looks at, not the frequency. The only thing such approaches do is impliment security by obscurity, and that ain't security.
What header info?, its all messages to the remailer with nondescript info .. from that point the latency and mix takes over. The meaningful message looks no different from the 'cover' traffic. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGP for Personal Privacy 5.0 Charset: noconv iQA/AwUBNDMZusdZgC62U/gIEQIk+wCdFC7SjEcydQjGaec9VWwvTVa6fGEAoK6Y dAjcP7WI0TBubRcYPBHFIBFJ =ZUbr -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- Brian B.
