If this was the first time the world heard of onion routing, then yes.

Now they can realize that you’re probably just one step in the chain. And with i2p there’s no way to know if they even reached the end of the chain (provided you host i2p for long enough).

the tor onion network. But no exits to clearnet.

Everybody contributes bandwith. And because everybody contributes bandwith, privacy is created because you can never know if you reached the end of the chain and found the creator of the first network request.

In theory it’s a lot more secure than the tor network. In practice it gets 1/100th of the funding, because you have to be a computer nerd to even install it, need a computer to keep it running 24/7 (longer you run, more privacy) , while tor browser “Just works” and can start providing privacy to everybody right away.

And in almost all cases is faster.

Is there any alternative to i2p torrenting if you want to torrent without a VPN? Other than living in a third world country.

They only handed over 1 ip address. Because he/she explicitly said they were a customer, during a specific time period, and admitted to doing it.

Reddit is refusing to hand over any more because it’s all circumstantial. Example: I heard this ISP doesn’t give a fuck.

And Reddit has further evidence that handing over ip addresses will hurt the others because the film companies immediately started harassing the one ip address they did hand over, via a reverse lookup through t-mobile.

Linux is not magically more resilient than Windows. If an exploit on windows exists, a similar exploit could also exist on Linux.

You can’t hack a piece of electrical tape. But there are classier webcam covers which you can slide to close available for sale.

I’m confused. Are you deleting everything nonstop on Safari? Because 2fa should be persistent on default.

As for a mullvad alternative, maybe librewolf.

Tor seems fast now but in my day and age, it was an hour to see the wikipedia main. (Or at least felt like it)

This is the way. Remember the great work all the Nobel Laureates did. Before they started rambling that Magikarp is an endangered species.

tear down every paywall

The trick is that the mushroom would still rather eat literally anything else. So you’d have to gather a pile of only that specific plastic to break down, and now you have the initial problems of why we don’t recycle in the first place: 💰

Would you need a VPN for that? Cause if the MPAA lawyers have to throw money at programmers to make an example, then they will.

If you do need a VPN, then i2P would be a better choice, though it suffers from network size/speed.

Edit 01:

Per https://lemmy.ca/u/mp3 https://lemmy.ca/comment/2015681

File discoverability is poor, most people will not know how to act as a node and mirror files, and there’s no builtin privacy protection in place and it’s quite easy to figure out which IP addresses are hosting something.
