Tor: Onion Service Protocol - 2 views

Janos Haits on 16 Feb 18"Tor makes it possible for users to hide their locations while offering various kinds of services, such as web publishing or an instant messaging server. Using Tor "rendezvous points," other Tor users can connect to these onion services, formerly known as hidden services, each without knowing the other's network identity. This page describes the technical details of how this rendezvous protocol works. For a more direct how-to, see our configuring onion services page."
