Do you have a better alternative to Tor? All of my understanding and reading has lead to it being a great solution for anonymous web browsing.

- Mizza 6y agoI mean, I still like Tor. It depends entirely about what your threat models and goals are. I2P never gets any attention compared to Tor, but it keeps chugging along. In many ways, it's a lot better. Their most recent release was on 2020-08-24. https://geti2p.net/en/ https://geti2p.net/en/
- pmontra 6y agoI can't assess the merits of i2p but in the comment section of the post I found this > i2p is substantially worse. > It is worse BECAUSE every user is also a relay. I can sit at watch the connection, allowing me to map out each user's address. If your server is up long enough, you should see everyone eventually.
- Mizza 6y agoReally, it's just a different thing. It is an entirely P2P network, so yes, that's what you get. But, anybody can run a Tor node too, as the article points out. (Practically speaking, I2P better for torrents.)
