MIT Creates Tor Alternative That Floods Networks With Fake Data (softpedia.com)

An anonymous reader writes with word that MIT researchers "created an alternative to Tor, a network messaging system called Vuvuzela that pollutes the network with dummy data so the NSA won't know who's talking to who." Initial tests show the systems overhead adding a 44-second delay, but the network can work fine and preserve anonymity even it has more than 50% of servers compromised.

carry on with those completely not-evil activities that can't be entrusted to any communications method accessible by law enforcement Because we all know the dastardly American NSA wants to snoop on your conversations with Aunt Sally and steal your pumpkin pie recipe, you are displaying true moral courage by striving constantly to ensure that total stealth is possible on the global information network.
