IceShare: IceT page hashing
...24bit even, and apply the same method as in the latest method (#5) so not all of the 1kbit (128byte) hash would need to be transfered. Even if it gets cracked, as SHA1 did, it should only mean being cryptographically weakened by a certain amount, which would still end up being larger than the 160bit SHA1 we originally started using. In theory, a random hash chunk as small as 32bit could be considered sufficient for each page, which with the average Ogg page this means 4bytes vs 4kbytes of transfer when compared to the payload (1/1000th is a very good ratio). If 32-bits is used as a fixed...
