Hello Tor,
I have a question about Onion Services hosting external resources.
If there's a webserver hosted as an Onion Service, with an external resource coded (for instance, a Flickr image on the home page), which 'node' in the rendezvous points system calls that resource? The client? The hidden service? The rendezvous?
It's obviously clear how this works with an exit node on the clearnet, but not so (to me) with Onion Services. I guess it's the hidden service, but that means someone watching the network connection of the service could see it calling the resources for a client every time it was requested. Right?
Thanks in advance, Wilton
