Encrypting something multiple times doesn't necessarily make something more secure. In some cases it can decrease the effectiveness of the protocols in use, but it really depends on what encryption is used and how it is used.

So if I understand this correctly, if you're in a country with a government that monitors traffic and you connect to a malicious public lahana node that monitors traffic, run by the same government then your traffic is compromised?

But if you run your own lahana node, then it's not (excluding questions about whether or not Amazon have the ability to go into a node for example)?

Sorry if it sounds like I'm being daft I'm just trying to understand the specifics here, so I can figure out ways to address them (if they fall within the scope of lahana, vs traditional Tor uses).
