<p dir="ltr">I have several hundred thousand (or million? Haven't counted) hs descriptors saved on my hard disk from a data collection experiment (from 70k HSes). I'm a bit nervous about sharing these en masse as whilst not confidential they're supposed to be difficult to obtain in this quantity. However, if someone wants to write a quick script that goes through all of them and counts the number of authenticated vs nonauthed then I do not mind running it on the dataset and publishing the results. I have a directory where each file is a hs descriptor.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The introduction point data is base64 encoded plaibtext when unauthed or has high entropy otherwise.</p>
