@ -39,3 +39,16 @@ The same analysis as above applies to **Participation Anonymity**.

- The number of topics transported within the same mesh determines unlinkability level, e.g., if the mesh is used to transport k topics then for every two messages m1 and m2 transported within that mesh, the probability that these two belong to the same conversation is 1/k
|
||||
- The anonymity level can be increased by generalizing the topics hence supporting more topics within a single mesh
|
||||
- Increasing anonymity of recipient comes with the bandwidth penalty for all the participants i.e., nodes have to spent their bandwidth to relay messages, not within their interests

# Comparison with Tor
|
||||
Tor protocol provides the following privacy properties, however against an attacker with limited scope.
|
||||
- sender anonymity
|
||||
- participation anonymity
|
||||
- unlinkability
|
||||
|
||||
A global adversary can break anonymity by statistical analysis based on
|
||||
- content size
|
||||
- Transmission direction
|
||||
- counts
|
||||
- timing
