What about streaming, which is increasingly used to hold power to
   account in real time? Or other rich, necessarily large media which
   needs to *get out fast*? Big media isn't always frivolous. Even
   frivolity is important, and a mixnet without fun is gonna be a small
   mixnet.

     I believe it could. Even if requiring super aggregating
     nodes of some sort. Layers of service of the whole
     DHT space. More research is surely required.

     It is not possible to have fast p2p unless:
     - Cable networks collaborate by increasing bandwidth 7 to 8 times

     My references to scale were not intended to be about...
     bulk bandwidth across such networks (for example, right
     now, I2P and Tor are doing well enough to see very low
     quality video between their hidden nodes if you get a lucky
     path, and well enough for moving large files around in non
     realtime). ie: the nodes have bandwidth available.

     We all wish privacy, not necessarily 4k videos. The current
     bandwidth can provide for 4k videos and also privacy, no matter if a
     littler slower, for a little chat, work and file transfers.
     Except if you are into media production or warez, the current
     bandwidth already does the trick for all the rest.
