Not able to read the full paper at the moment, and confused about something:
If the server needs to go pull the article from Wikipedia, how is it blind to which one is being requested?
If you've pre-seeded the server with an encrypted 30% of Wikipedia, how can I trust you haven't retained information that would enable you to derive what I requested?
The only way I understand this works is if the client itself seeded the encrypted data in the first place (or at least an encrypted index if all the server pushes back is article numbers).
Maybe I'm ignorant of something; if so thanks for ELI5.
