Interesting research in using traffic analysis to learn things about encrypted traffic. It’s hard to know how critical these vulnerabilities are. They’re very hard to close without wasting a huge amount of bandwidth.

I have been thinking about this, and now believe the attacks are more serious than I previously wrote.
