Since the initial revelations of pervasive surveillance in 2013,

several classes of attacks on Internet communications have been

discovered.  In this document, we develop a threat model that

describes these attacks on Internet confidentiality.  We assume an

attacker that is interested in undetected, indiscriminate

eavesdropping.  The threat model is based on published, verified

attacks.
