We propose a dedicated DNS Anonymity Service which protects users' privacy. The design consists of two building blocks: a broadcast scheme for the distribution of a "top list" of DNS hostnames, and low-latency Mixes for requesting the remaining hostnames unobservably. We show that broadcasting the 10,000 most frequently queried hostnames allows zero-latency lookups for over 80 % of DNS queries at reasonable cost. We demonstrate that the performance of the previously proposed Range Queries approach severely suffers from high lookup latencies in a real-world scenario.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
