Let’s explore upcoming features on the RPCh roadmap, starting with two that obscure traffic movement 👏 Something proxies/VPNs don’t address at all but is essential for true privacy is protection against traffic/timing analysis 🔐 The approach to transport-layer privacy has historically been one-dimensional with the core solution just being to add an intermediary to hide the source of your data from the server. But all the intermediaries in the world mean nothing if any observer can clearly distinguish traffic moving from one point to another 😅 For a true solution, considerations have to be made, so it isn’t so easy to link the source and destination of data being transferred 🔗🚫 RPCh Alpha already addresses this issue better than any VPN or proxied RPC setup with 👇 👉 Dynamic routing, selecting a new entry/exit node for every relay; this is similar to a VPN that changes more than ten times a second. 👉 And uniform packaging, where data is formatted into segmented, standardized Sphinx packets which are indistinguishable to an observer. But in upcoming releases, RPCh will utilize two features of the @hoprnet mixnet to obscure traffic movement entirely. 1️⃣ Packet mixing 2️⃣ Background noise Read how here:
