OVERLAY FOR COMMUNICATION ANONYMITY AND PRIVACY IN A COMPUTER NETWORK

摘要

A plurality of nodes connected to the plurality of servers that form a broadcasting overlay over a network for performing best effort broadcasting of data through the broadcasting overlay, may receive, from a first computing device of a plurality of computing devices connected to the broadcasting overlay, a first encrypted message and may perform best effort broadcasting of the first encrypted message through the broadcasting overlay to send, in an end-to-end encrypted manner, the first encrypted message to a first service of a plurality of services. The plurality of nodes may also receive, from the plurality of services, a second encrypted message, and may perform best effort broadcasting of the second encrypted message to propagate the second encrypted message through the broadcasting overlay to send, in the end-to-end encrypted manner, the second encrypted message to a second computing device of the plurality of computing devices.
