NYM: Mixnet for metadata privacy.

Nym runs a mixnet that defends the layer encryption leaves exposed: not what you said, but who you talked to, when and how often. It adds cover traffic and timing obfuscation so that even a network-level observer watching every packet cannot reconstruct the pattern, and it ships a consumer VPN built on that foundation. The research behind it is peer-reviewed and open. Mixing costs latency and bandwidth by construction, which is the price of defeating traffic analysis.
