I found I2P much better than Tor network, and now it supports BitTorrent protocol too https://geti2p.net/en/docs/applications/bittorrent .
Why haven’t the pirates migrated to I2P? Why are we still using clearnet and making people backout of seeding cause of DMCA?
Can you trust Tor or VPN? Tor was developed with the help of US intelligence to help build a anonymous network.
Read all of the source and research who hosts the relays to determine their trustworthiness. Decide for yourself
I self-host my VPN and it’s open source
That’s great. But not everyone is interested learning and setting up their own VPS. If it was trivial no VPN service would be in business.
It is kinda trivial?
But it’s primarily cost and service intensive.
