[ excerpt from developer's web site ]
|
|
|
|
I2P is an anonymizing network, offering a simple layer that
|
|
identity-sensitive applications can use to securely communicate.
|
|
All data is wrapped with several layers of encryption, and the
|
|
network is both distributed and dynamic, with no trusted parties.
|
|
|
|
Many applications are available that interface with I2P, including
|
|
mail, peer-peer, IRC chat, and others.
|
|
|
|
Anonymity is not a boolean - we are not trying to make something
|
|
"perfectly anonymous", but instead are working at making attacks
|
|
more and more expensive to mount. I2P alone is what could be called
|
|
a "low latency mix network", and there are limits to the anonymity
|
|
offered by such a system, but the applications on top of I2P, such
|
|
as Syndie, I2P mail, and I2PSnark extend it to offer both additional
|
|
functionality and protection.
