Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Anybody with a view of the underlying network (telcos, cloud providers, and the government agencies they provide netflow to) can see who/what is connecting to an atSign. They may not be able to see the conversation contents, but they can see that a conversation is happening, and who the participants are.

Describe the solution you'd like

Allow atServers to be found and connected to using .onion addresses on the Tor network (like Facebook did)

Moving to Backlog but marking as P1 and changing type to Discussion so we can discuss it on architecture calls a couple of weeks from now

Great idea! Had the discussion. Will put in the backlog as nice to have. Looking for a partner to work with.
