There is an inherent problem with Tor, in that it attempts to provide
responsiveness comparable to regular IP, and this exposes it to timing
based attacks.

For text messages, and blog like websites, we don't actually need that
performance.  Send all data to everyone, flood filling it usenet style,
or if that is too much data, to everyone subscribing to a stream, flood
fill it around usent style plus bittorrent style, so that everyone has a
copy of everything, so when you interact with a website, it is locally
on your computer, and your replies get flood filled back to the original
website and everyone reading the original website, after a considerable
delay and through many intermediaries.

Zeronet almost does this, you can have things that function like
websites, but it does not support things that function like blogs,
though it could and should.
