Why don't they mention a possibility to do torrenting in I2P, which is truly anonymous and safe (although slow)? It seems like a very dangerous thing to do in the clearnet.
- wutwutwat 3y ago> torrenting in I2P, which is truly anonymous and safe Same was said about TOR There is no such thing as truly anonymous and safe and there never will be
- fsflover 3y agoIt's officially not recommended to use Tor for torrents. > There is no such thing as truly anonymous and safe and there never will be Of course, there are no absolutes, but there is a reasonable privacy and safety.
- wutwutwat 3y agoI was talking about TOR being anonymous not just torrents over TOR, just ask the Silk Road guy who had his IP leak afaik
- fsflover 3y agoHe didn't have an IP leak: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silk_Road_(marketplace) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silk_Road_(marketplace)

- fsflover 3y agoGoogle wants that to be true. It doesn't mean they're right. See also: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27897975 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=27897975
