After extensive search of anonymous file sharing, I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s the best solution to date, with none of the flaws of the much (too much) advertised Bitbinder, VPNs, rapidshare, usenet, etc, and it’s free.

Granted, the i2p project has managed to keep itself quite discreet, and as a result it does not have yet the wealth of material that popular torrent sites have.

But with the clampdown on file sharing, I do believe that it is the only truly viable solution in the long run, and I expect that more and more people will join in.

And as more people join in, more material will be available and faster will the transfers be.

In sum, keep using what you currently use, but join us as well on i2p, until i2p becomes the only necessary tool.

Let’s rock that boat a little bit.

I’ve seen some ISPs in this area (outside of my ability to get service but still near here) that offer 3-5 times more upload bandwidth than I get for the same price I’m paying. Enough bandwidth to actually make P2P interesting.

They can’t keep up its a FACT.

We will not let them take this away..we are hidden but we are an intelligent powerful ARMY.

KNOWLEDGE IS POWER

Money is ripping of my time, my thoughts and my creativity to create and build what ever I want and enjoy myself of giving it to someone and receiving a smile and warmth of joy. Money puts me trough school and into a world without perspective on a 70h/week job that I hate. Bound to the everyday pressure circle of “geting money in” to survive in that slavery system just to feed my children, pay my bills and buying anything else because of lacking SPARE TIME to build it myself or think it all out.

copyright is like money … a human illusion made out of thin air to get all humans to think in one way that can be easily predicted. Well thanks to paper, letter printing, books and finally the Internet and the early modem days … it isn’t just big philosophers and presidents that get the word out and discus it with a lot of people (besides the past is public common! At least a lot of it is). And of course as in every system … forces want to control and cencor that power and use it to their own interest and profit.

What ever is needed is maybe enough with a exit-node-cloud system on the current ipv4 system … but it will be obsolete within a ipv6 system. politicians and lobbies take ipv6 as new control perspective … so they will push it!
Sadly I don’t have time to put it all together. What ever is needed it will not be a exit-node-cloud system relaying peers in between a connection to servers. And no company will “sell” us the solution! that whole One-Server/N-Clients concept need to be redesigned more redundant and clusterd over peers whatsoever.

Todays business is based on ripping of. Good Deals are those ripping of to some extend on human- or material- resources.
I don’t buy music, because labels will rip of the artists and studios so I donate on existing paypal account or buy stuff like shirts and posters to be sure that they see more of my money. I never was into movies or series .. but I really like documentaries so producers and studios will get some donation or I buy some of their fan merchandise. I try to take the least-rip-of way to get most of my money to the people who deserve it.

I’ve commented on a few other posts on TorrentFreak about I2P but just in case others don’t know…

I2P allows one to share files via torrent, gnutella and other means without the data ever hitting the normal internet. I2P has it’s own torrent trackers also.

After some testing, I highly suggest 0.7.4-3 version of I2P (with the GUI). It is way faster than 0.7.4-0 (latest stable). You can pick up 0.7.4-3 here (public way to access the echelon.i2p eepsite):

Pup2p (Puppy Linux remaster aimed for I2P use) has finally been released. It is a Linux LiveCD distro with a lot of I2P related apps including the above mentioned version of I2P. The easiest way to share files via torrent on I2P is to install I2P and i2pfox, launch both and once everything is going, check out the “Torrents” bookmark folder. i2psnark is the torrent client. Tracker2 is the main torrent tracker on I2P. It may take some use to get used to but once you know how to use everything, it’s easy.
Pup2p:

It has become a whole lot easier to install these days too.

So please.. n00bs to the idea of online privacy take a look. It might be the best chance we have at a free file sharing world.
