Limitations & Future Work | Limitation | Proposed enhancement | |------------|----------------------| | No UDP support | Wrap UDP in WebTransport (future QUIC binding) | | High per-hop CPU (obfuscation) | Hardware acceleration via AES-NI + vectorized padding | | Beacon centralization risk | Replace beacons with a DHT-based random walk (Kademlia) | | Legal liability for drifters | Embed oblivious HTTP (ORAM-like) to hide destination from exit node | 9. Conclusion The Interstellar Web Proxy Links proposal offers a concrete, implementable alternative to traditional centralized proxies and Tor. By combining DHT discovery, ephemeral tickets, and packet obfuscation, it achieves resilience, low latency, and moderate anonymity suitable for circumventing non-global adversaries. The design prioritizes churn tolerance and ease of deployment – any user with a public IP can become a drifter node. Future work includes a production reference implementation in Rust/Tokio and a live testnet across 100+ volunteer nodes.
