Abstract:In view of the legislations on privacy, we address the issue of limiting non-technical responsibility of the administrators of a computer network. A primary concern regards the anonymity of channels within a local network. Solutions proposed in the literature increase significantly the traffic. In this paper we argue that it is possible to implement anonymous and private channels in a local network, without increasing the traffic, with a suitable combination of an appropriate policy and technical tools.
