5. Open questions (Mar 2018)

• do we want relays under our control to use for the measurements?

• algorithm to choose exits?

• location of the scanners?

• location of the Web servers?

• how to increase network diversity?

• how to distribute better network load around the world?

• what balance do we want between optimizing performance and maintaining network security?

• can we use Conflux or something like this? it could be a DDoS against the new relays. this could be done selectively against those relays with the unmeasured flag.

• if we measure the same relay 10 times, what should we do to combine these numbers?

• how important is it to keep the slow relays in the network? what does pushing them out do to network diversity?

• what balance do we want between optimizing performance and maintaining network security?

• “proof of storage” protocol, which delegates the bandwidth measurements to little relays, which run in aggregate to measure bigger relays

• peerflow
