I don't think you can quantify privacy. What would be the units for that? There's secrecy and not-secrecy. But with these things, you simply mitigate (to some extent) the ability to correlate network activity. > One might compare this to the policy of some sys admins that users need > to change passwords regularly.

I don't think it has been debunked. Certainly, if you change your password, you limit the ability of the attacker that had obtained your password from re-using the same credentials. (assuming they are not used for a system where they can install backdoors, etc.). Most things we emply for security have an associated lifetime... -- Fernando Gont SI6 Networks e-mail: fgont@si6networks.com PGP Fingerprint: 6666 31C6 D484 63B2 8FB1 E3C4 AE25 0D55 1D4E 7492
