Hi,
iDEFENSE Intelligence Operations has just released a research paper on Peekabooty. Peekabooty is an anonymous web-browsing tool similar to peer-to-peer file sharing programs such as Napster and Morpheus. However, the purpose of Peekabooty is not to exchange files and programs but rather to provide anonymous web browsing. What makes Peekabooty unique is that each individual client node sends and receives information directly by proxying and submitting the requests of its neighbors without querying a centralized server. This paper discusses the origins of Peekabooty and examines beta version 0.7.5 for Windows as well as some of the program's future technical capabilities.
The paper is available at http://www.idefense.com/peekabooty.html
