Theme: Improve libp2p Privacy

ETA: 2023-05-30

Description: Adding privacy guarantees to libp2p has been a long-standing request by the community. During the last couple of months we have been working to do the background research, define the spec and do the implementation of the most elegant solution. The approach we’re following is based on Double-Hashing of requests to the IPFS DHT, which addresses Reader Privacy (and not Writer Privacy at this point). The design and implementation are already underway (in Q4 2022). This Milestone will be complete when the solution is integrated in the IPFS network, subject to negotiation and approval from the IPFS Stewards team. You can find more information in this Notion page: Double Hashing for Privacy.
