Exploiting P2P Applications to Trace and Profile Tor Users

http://j.mp/huF4Wf  (Usenix [PDF]) [may trigger cert mismatch warning]

     In this paper, we show that linkability allows us to trace 193%
     of additional streams, including 27% of HTTP streams possibly
     originating from "secure" browsers. In particular, we traced 9%
     of all Tor streams carried by our instrumented exit nodes.
