Back to EpisodesGosling: Build Anonymous, Secure, and Metadata-Resistant Peer-to-Peer Applications using Tor Onion Services (WHY2025)
Published 1 year, 3 months ago
Description
Gosling is a Tor onionservice-based protocol and Rust reference-implementation which allows developers to build privacy-preserving p2p applications with the following properties:
- persistent authenticated peer identity
- end-to-end encrypted
- anonymity
- metadata resistance
- decentralisation
- real-time communication
This talk will go over the complexities involved in combining all of these properties (with a focus on metadata resistance) and describe how Gosling solves these problems.
