NS2-Receive: Information-Theoretic One-Way Anonymous Reception — Unifying NS2.0 and NFC-OTP into a Correlation-Resistant Architecture
Abstract
NS2.0 specifies an information-theoretic cipher. NFC-OTP specifies how its one-time-pad material is distributed without internet, accounts, or coercible platforms. This document unifies the two with a reception channel that emits nothing, yielding a complete one-way messaging architecture whose anonymity does not degrade against a global passive adversary capable of end-to-end traffic correlation — the adversary class that low-latency anonymity networks (Tor, and therefore Whonix and Tails) explicitly do not defend against. The contribution is not a new primitive; it is the demonstration that three already-published primitives, composed under one discipline (the AriaVenona Rule), close a gap each leaves open individually. The architecture's security reduces entirely to one-time-pad handling; this is stated as a feature, not hidden as a caveat.
