Number of bits for the selectURL output gate #34

Closed yoavweiss closed 1 year ago

yoavweiss commented 2 years ago

The explainer states that "The chosen URL represents up to log2(num urls) bits of cross-site information", but it's not immediately obvious (to me) why that's the case. Expanding on it (inline in the explainer, or in a separate document) would be appreciated! :)

I added a couple links to the relevant Wikipedia page.

Also, the Budgeting section's explanation may be a bit more fleshed out now.

Closing for now, but please re-open if you think this has not been sufficiently addressed. Thanks!
