'Silk Road Reloaded' Launches On a Network More Secret Than Tor

Posted by timothy on from the ok-but-is-it-better? dept.

rossgneumann writes A new anonymous online drug market has emerged, but instead of using the now infamous Tor network, it uses the lesser known "I2P" alternative. "Silk Road Reloaded" launched yesterday, and is only accessible by downloading the special I2P software, or by configuring your computer in a certain way to connect to I2P web pages, called 'eepsites', and which end in the suffix .i2p. The I2P project site is informative, as is the Wikipedia entry.

    As an English speaker learning Spanish I found it easiest to start with the word 'corrida'. Somehow the O vowel before helped to roll the RR. After that, 'corrida de burritos'. More difficult still, 'corrida de perritos'.

    Honeypot???

    I downloaded it from www.fbi.gov/downloads/i2p.exe and it looks okay. Why do you think it is a honeypot?

  5. Just to be sure, compile it from source by Anonymous Coward · · Score: 2, Funny

    You should download the source code and compile it yourself. Be sure to use the compiler that is supplied as part of the package.
