How does i2p work

I2P works by automatically making each client in the network a node, through which data and traffic are routed. These nodes are responsible for providing encrypted, one-way connections to and from other computers within the network.

Can I2P be traced?

The Invisible Internet Project (I2P) is a fully encrypted private network layer. It protects your activity and location. Every day people use the network to connect with people without worry of being tracked or their data being collected.

Does I2P hide IP?

Unlike Tor, one thing that I2P isn't, is a proxy to the Internet (also called "clearnet"). If you're browsing a regular website, I2P will not hide your IP address unless you use a Tor outproxy (similiar to an exit node in Tor).

Is I2P the same as Tor?

I2P and TOR are two different methods to make communication safer. I2P creates its own internet and make communication anonymous, while TOR only providers a safer communication channel by keeping the message encrypted.

Is I2P anonymous?

The Invisible Internet Project (I2P) is an anonymous network layer (implemented as a mix network) that allows for censorship-resistant, peer-to-peer communication.
