True, but a good Friend to Friend darknet cannot be stopped as long as there is a network to run it on.
- flatline 16y agoIf enough people were using it, I'd think that a) some of them would be government operatives and b) the traffic could be analyzed to identify and remove internet access from a large number of the participants. I don't know that much about darknets so maybe the traffic analysis is not so straightforward.
