Well, the NSE service *only* gives you an estimate of the size of the
network that is somewhat expensive for a Sybil attacker to inflate. It
is used by the DHT to "safely" tune certain internal parameters. I do
not know if it would be useful for Sybil mitigations beyond the DHT.
Also, please do not CC help-gnunet on these questions, just the
developer mailing list should be more than enough!

Good evening, is it recommended to connect to the NSE service if I
want to mitigate a Sybil type attack?
