Re:CacheOut: Leaking Data on Intel CPUs via Cache Evictions by DoctorOetker on Tuesday January 28, 2020 @10:27AM (#22170215)
what's your opinion on package management communications? couldn't an eavesdropper on the network deduce quite a bit about your system's configuration? distribution of dates and sizes of packages downloaded seems like quite a leak.

perhaps package servers and package management software should round up the package size to hide the identity of the package? use oblivious transfer to hide the identity of the package from the package server itself?
