See http://servalpaul.blogspot.com/2011/11/demonstrating-serval-rhizome-store-an... for some details, video and cartoon to explain a little of how it works. I am also working on a white paper that describes it in much more detail.

Could this enable phone-based anonymizing remailers having long random latency for mixing? How much memory is available, typically? I know, this question belongs on the serval-project-developers mailing list, so I'm trying to subscribe there now. This service uses direct mesh links if they are available by making use of the existing SMS capability in the Serval BatPhone software. However, if there is no direct link, then it uses a store-and-forward scheme, that asks any passing phones to copy the message and distribute it to other phones on the mesh, until it (hopefully) eventually reaches its intended destination. Reinventing SMTP! :) While the delay in such a service is huge, the bandwidth is also great, as potentially gigabytes of data can be transferred between nodes. These are both valuable attributes for anonymizing remailers. - -- -- StealthMonger <StealthMonger@nym.mixmin.net> Long, random latency is part of the price of Internet anonymity. anonget: Is this anonymous browsing, or what? http://groups.google.ws/group/alt.privacy.anon-server/msg/073f34abb668df33?dmode=source&output=gplain stealthmail: Hide whether you're doing email, or when, or with whom. mailto:stealthsuite@nym.mixmin.net?subject=send%20index.html Key: mailto:stealthsuite@nym.mixmin.net?subject=send%20stealthmonger-key -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.10 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Processed by Mailcrypt 3.5.9 <http://mailcrypt.sourceforge.net/> iEYEARECAAYFAk7NFawACgkQDkU5rhlDCl6NNwCfdRG47z/uM0pkolsV8PgNYXX5 DBIAnRAo6sV9pzzmR7EWDtxSrCKIIYtS =fgBO -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
