Obfuscate traffic to server

Open jackflips opened this issue 11 years ago • 0 comments

Protest organizers should have the ability to specify whether they want their Protest to be available to people not directly in the mesh. This is facilitated through supernodes, a few per mesh that sync messages between disparate meshes. We don't want to reveal to the state that these supernodes are using Protest, so we need to make the traffic look like something else. @chrisballinger suggested using obfsproxy. Something like meek (https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/wiki/doc/meek) seems to be perfect as the traffic goes through an intermediate server run by google or amazon.
