_rlms··on I2P: Invisible Internet Protocol
Not usable yet, still implementing and testing the data structures. Thanks for those links, very interesting!
_rlms··on I2P: Invisible Internet Protocol
Hah, yes. Mixminion is a good example of a high latency mixnet. There has been some talk of adding a high latency option to I2P as well at some point.

C++, stable on the network: https://github.com/PurpleI2P/i2pd C++, active development: https://github.com/monero-project/kovri Go, pretty new (my project!): https://github.com/hkparker/go-i2p

Thanks for contributing to I2P!

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?

Good to see I2P get some attention here.

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.

_rlms··on OnHub
I started developing a self hosted home automation framework for my senior project last year. Been on a bit of a hiatus, partially because I don't have my own place currently, but its here: https://github.com/terramod. Central web application that can run "apps" on your house, with raspi nodes that connect the hardware around the house.

I too am a bit surprised to hear tech minded people get excited about products that basically exist to collect their data.

_rlms··on On the detection of quantum insert
I wrote a script a while ago in Go to detect quantum insert attacks. It's not perfect but its well commented. I noticed quite a few detections when I ran it for a few days but they seemed to be benign, probably retransmissions.
