Hidden Services Specifications for anonymous seeding

Hidden services ensure that people which offer controversial video material are protected online. Their identity remains hidden.

Tor hidden services are the leading solution for anonymous webhosting, but unsuitable for Youtube-like video streaming. This specification is mostly based on the Tor approach, with enhancements to support HD-quality video streaming. For instance, use of the UDP protocol and relying on a DHT to decentralise central directory servers.
