Feb 28, 2011 at 5:34 comment added Jacob Lurie The original question mentions that given a commutative ring R and an ideal I, two topological spaces (defined using the Zariski topology) are homeomorphic. My answer was addressing the question ``what is an analogous statement for the etale topology?'' (The answer being that you can extract two topoi which are equivalent.) I don't think you can formally deduce anything about defining sites from this. Rather the information would go in the other direction: to write down a proof of my claim, you'll want to think about the problem of lifting etale coverings, as in your earlier reply.
Feb 28, 2011 at 5:21 comment added Anton Geraschenko Can the topoi really recover this kind of information about the original etale sites? It seems like knowing that $i$ is a closed immersion of etale topoi should prove that the canonical topology on the etale topos of $Y$ is induced by the canonical topology on the etale topos of $X$ (or something like that).
