I found I2P much better than Tor network, and now it supports BitTorrent protocol too https://geti2p.net/en/docs/applications/bittorrent .

Why haven't the pirates migrated to I2P? Why are we still using clearnet and making people backout of seeding cause of DMCA?

Because it's slower than using VPN + clearnet?

Do be honest I don't care about speed when it's free. I just start the download and enjoy it a few days later

The selection of torrents on i2p is also a lot smaller than on the clearweb.

I might work on this later. I'm a developer specialized in p2p technologies. I'm currently working on a decentralized search engine for ipfs but after that I would like to build a torrent client that supports clearnet and i2p at the same time, and also supports decentralized search of torrents

As a user: There needs to be absolute certainty that clearnet is disabled when I want it to and no way to leak the IP. Kinda like how i know setting mullvad as the internet adapter should mean client traffic only ever goes over that connection.

That requires that you trust your vpn.

As opposed to trusting I2P?

[–] CAVOK@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You don't have to. You can audit the code yourself and build it from scratch. Most won't. But you can.

[–] Banzai51@midwest.social -1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Only works if you code. For the 99% of us that don't, open source means little in that regard.

[–] CAVOK@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

True, but you can. For vpn you have to trust them. There is no other choice.

If you can't read code yourself you can pay a number of companies some money to do the audit for you. Or you can learn to code.

You can't learn to know how the vpn logs data.

But I get you. Most of us just put our trust in another entity.
