movie-web was just taken down with all its repos, Yuzu was taken down, then suyu forked it on gitlab and was taken down, countless clones of nintendo games, platform emulators, and a bunch of other things are taken down because they are hosted on the clear web.

If you’re a dev and planning to write software for piracy, host it on I2P!

    Perhaps the main differences are:

    • Unidirectional tunnels instead of bidirectional circuits
    • Fully distributed and self organizing
    • Packet switched instead of circuit switched
    • Tunnels in I2P are short lived
    • i2p puts an emphasis on communicating within the network, whereas Tor puts more emphasis on communicating via the network to outside

    Together these provide some additional resilience and protection against traffic analysis compared to Tor, arguably improving security.
