Comment buddy system (Score 2, Interesting) 668
I think I've mentioned this a long time ago but I didn't really hear many responses.
What about a system where you sign in and the server assigns you a buddy. You submit a search which goes to your buddy who then executes the search and sends you the results. If you download something it actually goes through your buddy first and then to you. If your buddy gets a search request, he actually queries your files and sends a response. If you don't get a response from a budyy in a reasonable amount of time, you send a message out requesting a new buddy.
I know it would be less efficient but wouldn't it make it much more difficult to trace an individual user?
