Do you have any thoughts on HORNET? Could I2P benefit from a more stateless routing mechanism as opposed to tunnels in the far future?
Are any of the devs going to defcon this year? I tried to get a small meetup going last year in the privacy village but no turnout, would love to make something official.
I'm working on Go implementation here: https://github.com/hkparker/go-i2p. Haven't made to irc2p to introduce myself yet but I will. Are there any devs who might be interested in contributing?
Privacy of developers seems a priority. Without any detail of course, can you comment on how necessary this has been. Is it irresponsible of me to work on an implementation in the clear?
For those who don't know about I2P:
* Anonymity network similar to TOR in some ways, but rather than focusing on getting someone out to the internet anonymously, I2P is a low-latency mix network with no out proxies. See: https://ritter.vg/blog-mix_and_onion_networks.html
* Virtually every I2P router relays traffic, unlike TOR the network is very "flat". Directory servers are replaced with a DHT called the netDB.
Recently I've been working on a Go implementation of the I2P router: https://github.com/hkparker/go-i2p. It isn't on the network yet, would be really interested in working with anyone who wants to contribute.
I too am a bit surprised to hear tech minded people get excited about products that basically exist to collect their data.
