Naw, this has the same kinds of risks as drug-dealing, except few people would be willing to chance prison for a movie, if they thought it was a real possibility. Going from darknet to sneakernet is a step backward. What needs doing is a combo TOR/bittorrent client for Windows that emphasizes the security of the TOR route over the normal bittorrent route with UI design, while still allowing the latter, so that the client can gain traction.
- aw3c2 17y agoWhile the usage might be awkward at first (you have to run a main application which you control through your browser), I2P is great for anonymous filesharing. Bittorrent is strong, there are 3 or 4 trackers with fresh uploads all the time. Speeds are lower of course, but 10-20 Kilobytes/s for new well-swarmed torrents are possible with not too much effort. The applications you can use with I2P are often normal desktop applications, for Bittorrent there is for example PyBit.
