sure, the talk was about encrypted messaging and not a comparison
about a browsing proxy chain. the chat can be done over any proxy. so
both could be stuck together and that adds another layer. I think that
should be analysed in one year further, in case TorChat is based on
encryption and the endpoint of Tor or I2P is getting only ciphertext.
