See also the fork[0] that works with Maidsafe. Unlike Dat, Maidsafe claims to offer anonymity. Although I have not kept up recently, I believe neither the fork nor the Maidsafe network are ready for prime time, but both are promising. This is especially true for doing bidirectional communication and other things more dynamic websites require.
Thanks to the beaker dev for abstracting the backend!

- filiwickers 10y agoYou are correct that Dat does not offer anonymity. The primary use case for Dat is with scientific and public data. In Dat, a user will only connect with peers trying to share the same dataset, meaning a user will never get data they didn't ask for on their computer. However, we are concerned and thinking about how to improve reader privacy - which is the main need for anonymity in the Dat: https://datproject.org/blog/2016-12-18-p2p-reader-privacy https://datproject.org/blog/2016-12-18-p2p-reader-privacy.
- wyager 10y agoI don't know about the details of modern maidsafe operation, but when I went to a talk by them a few years back at a Bitcoin conference in DC, they were 100% full of it. All talk, no substance. I asked a few pointed questions wrt. Sybil attacks and their responses were so bad that a few of the knowledgeable people (including some Bitcoin-qt devs) present couldn't help but laugh. It was very transparently some sort of investor money grab. I would take anything they say with a serious grain of salt.
