>What is GNUnet? GNUnet is a fully decentralised p2p framework for a number of applications, the most commonly used one (probably) is filesharing More info: gnunet.org/goals gnunet.org/concepts >Why use GNUnet over private trackers? Private trackers: >have to keep up a seed ratio or you're thrown out >have to attach an account to your searches and requests >have to trust that the private tracker's owner won't leak your details anywhere >uploading must be approved GNUnet: >no seeding requirement >no account needed >no trusted 3rd parties needed >no way to trace any traffic back to you, unless you set anonymity to 0 >even just searching for content can be done via GNUnet's anonymous protocol >anyone can publish anything >no way for publishers to know who's downloading >no way for downloaders to know who's publishing (except via optional namespaces)
So how do we put nyaa into it? Second what prevents gnunet from becoming a CP infested hellscape?
Alexander Fisher
who says it isnt?
Owen Gonzalez
GNUnet is my new favorite
Gabriel Gomez
Is this the future? Can we finally have a file sharing technology that just werks, again?
Liam Lee
>what prevents gnunet from becoming a CP infested hellscape? Nothing, it already is. Using GNUnet will just end up with you unwittingly hosting CP on your computer and becoming a valid target for the FBI
It's a neat technology that is ruined by degenerates
Wyatt Adams
>GNUnet >just werks You're going to have way less people seeding because of the hoops they have to jump through to set it up
Chase Sullivan
Anything to ensure quality control on this? Is it going to turn into a sea of poor quality uploads and viruses?
Camden Foster
You could add the quality in the keywords, I suppose.
We really should get a proper wiki page on this.
Jaxson Cruz
Anyway people can rate files good/bad? What about user comments? How do you know your not just downloading gigabytes of dolphin porn?
Caleb Young
just use demonsaw it's bigger and easier
Ian Miller
>It's a neat technology that is ruined by degenerates
just like everything else
Luis Anderson
>GPL
No, thanks
Blake Thomas
GNUchan when
Andrew Murphy
Not a rating system/user comments from what I can tell, but you can see the metadata of a file being downloaded. No real way to check if something is legit or not, but the same could be said for torrents.
One could probably set up a site that indexes gnURLs and allows for rating/comments, similar to TPB or something.
Aaron Collins
This has to be the worst piece of software I've ever used.
Dominic Bennett
>Anonymous Am I anonymous from my ISP or should I also use a VPN?
Ethan Murphy
how do i fucking install this shit on windows?
Jonathan Perry
>aboriginal flag what did they mean by this?
Caleb Stewart
You have to compile it. lol
Jaxson White
This this this so much this
Jaxon Collins
So, have anyone found anything interesting on this fabulous network? I see only few files and most of them have 0% availability. Also is it possible to somehow see if anyone is downloading from me? I tried uploading several ebooks and can't see any response.
Nolan Peterson
I'm currently uploading the Ghost in the Shell original movie. Can be found searched via: mp4, ghost. Although more like a test than something else. Search up "pdf" and wait a while for pdfs to pop up. You'll find some pdfs with "top secret" and security.
Nicholas White
how does this work in comparison to Tor and why should I trust this when even the NSA has ways to track you when using Tor?
Nathan Diaz
>Using GNUnet will just end up with you unwittingly hosting CP on your computer >unwittingly That's some tech illiteracy right there
Jackson Sanchez
You don't even have a shred of anonymity in the internet. Even the tightly secured airgapped nuclear facilities can be hacked, why does someone deceive itself that they can defend themselves against such agencies? Your best bet would be hiding your furry stash from your boss but that's it.
Gavin White
Both the TCP and UDP transports fail with the default config. Do I have to forward the port on my router as well? Can't really tell from the site.
"no easy way to know who sent what" sums it pretty well
Carson Scott
Is it a new tor? Or freenet?
Cooper Hughes
just filesharing for now, but they will soon expand
Levi Evans
>" we assume that the adversary can see all the traffic on the Internet. And while we assume that the adversary can not break our encryption, we assume that the adversary has many participating nodes in the network and that it can thus see many of the node-to-node interactions since it controls some of the nodes."
>Hiding actions in the traffic of other users requires participating in the traffic, bringing back the traditional technique of using indirection and source rewriting.
tl;dr: Enjoy being used to traffic cp.
Samuel White
just what the buttmad NSA would say
Aaron Allen
It's only a matter of time before a glaring issue si found and it turns out the NSA can track the original sender and figure out what he is sending.
Oliver Bennett

Asher Foster
Guys, if you could change the interface, what would you do? I mean specific stuff
Landon Hughes
for starters use QT instead of GTK.
Isaiah Cox
I would consider installing ubuntu for this if it had content.
Easton James
Make the statistics show meaningful values and have a time axis that makes sense Rewrite the fs-gtk list so it works with dark themes and tiling wms (I can't see the metadata column on narrow windows) also
Jonathan Miller
Get rid of the godawful tab images, and replace them with just text. By the looks of it, they embed other GTK applications (seeing as though gnunet-fs-gtk can be started separately, which saves you from seeing the fucking images). Shouldn't be too hard, in theory.
Then again, I have no idea how GTK works, so this is all just me guessing.
This.
Lincoln Morgan
GNUnet require root to be installed. Discarded.
Liam Diaz
I found i2p to be interesting and a bit more mature than GNUnet. Any i2p sites worth a damn to look up?
Blake Myers
I wish it was less of a pain to use on terminal. You're making me install a WM for that shit
Jace Garcia
The terminal interface isn't so bad. If you really need a proper interface, but for some reason are too retarded to use a WM, what's stopping you from making an ncurses interface for it?
Juan Brooks
Can't see shit. Even after half an hour search. Maybe not all the nodes see all the others? (no, I have no idea how this network works..or is supposed to) There are some results for "avi", "epub", etc, but nothing worth of interest.
Thomas King
How do I use this on windows?
Carter Cruz
I only get 3 results searching for avi, 4 searching for epub. is that normal?
Brody Murphy
Also is anyone using the Arch package? Does running it as a systemd service work? Anyone got a working example gnunet.conf?
Dominic Williams
I'm retarded
Cooper Cook
We need someone working on a web interface working on loopback. Any up to the challenge? The devs are in #gnunet on freenode.
Oh yes, Ghost in the shell showed up under "ghost" (no result under "mp4"). But the availability is 0% and there doesn't seem to be any progress, at least this early. Did you increase your speed limits? My default upload limit was 1024 B/s. I have six results for "avi" now and four for "epub" (three of them are my uploads) Looks like you may find several results almost immediately and some other after tens of minutes, maybe more, who knows.
Wyatt Stewart
How is this different than IPFS?
Nathaniel Peterson
i put it at like 5000000 bytes or whatever it is
Michael Cook
Retroshare masterrace.
Brandon Brooks
GNUnet ftw
Eli Reyes
i2p is better
Ethan Parker
how?
Samuel Gomez
I'm starting to agree. I2p is pretty damn easy to configure, it has built-in browser functionality, and it just seems more reasonable to use.
Jackson Jackson
hiddenbooru
Alexander Wright
eMule used to make use of these great/good/OK/bad/really bad icons, plus users could add comments to files. Not sure why basically every p2p thing since then didn't have something similar. Oh how I wish there was a modern equivalent with IPv6 support and decent encryption that's easy enough to use so that millions of users across the world could simply share their stuff with everyone.
Joseph Stewart
not really identical files are not colluded meaning if the one person sharing it goes offline it's gone, and/or we end up with countless differently named unsortable duplicates
whereas on gnunet, if two unrelated people publish a file with an identical hash (independent of file name and tags), they will be treated as the same and you can/will leech from both
Blake Ramirez
Is it like danbooru?
Jeremiah Russell
i2p is not really only for file sharing. its more like tor but better.
Jacob Mitchell
Guys, there is thing thing called gnunet zones you want to check, they are meant as a "rating" system
Jayden Butler
Retroshare looks like a perfect social network than filesharing service
Ryder Murphy
>meaning if the one person sharing it goes offline it's gone, and/or we end up with countless differently named unsortable duplicates wtf are you talking about. i2p is a network level protocol, you run other filesharing layer over it like torrents
John Garcia
>i2p is a network level protocol so is GNUnet, and even a better protocol
Jace Scott
>Showing the old GUI, screenshot the new GUI faggot
Josiah Nguyen
i guess. the images are well tagged and it's active
Jace Bennett
Looks like ass like most loonix software. Year of the linux desktop never ever
Jaxon Wright
I'll take a look at it in 2-3 years from now. If it has a reasonably sized user base by then, a good windows client, and isn't just for pedos sharing cp, then maybe I'll start using it
Liam Lopez
pedos using something is often a great sign shows that whatever is actually legit/secure/trustable they pave the way and pull the rest of us forward the only good things left in modernity we owe to those with unspeakable fetishes thank you sickos, thank you for fighting the good fight and trying to keep the world and future a little less bleak
Andrew Myers
>shows that whatever is actually legit/secure/trustable kek, truth thou
Robert Edwards
pedos are retards. they just trade links to their whatsapp groups on the darknet sites
Joseph Johnson
That's why I said "isnt just for pedos". Obviously if it is truly secure and anonymous degenerates will flock to it. Having a platform who's main user base are kiddyfiddlers is not something I want to be a part of if I'm doing perfect legitimate things, or even lesser crimes such as piracy.
Connor Baker
Why this over freenet?
Ethan Hernandez
Freenet is capacity limited.
Jace Scott
just keep posting this or someone make a better one because this is somehow confusing to some people
freenet >good luck inserting anything of significant size into the network, let alone in a timely manner >there are multiple copies of whatever you insert, but nothing like peers of a torrent >unpopular things not being actively downloaded die very quickly
Parker Richardson
this. they're retarded enough to get caught by having javascript enabled
Luke Cooper
you only hear about retarded pedos because they're the only ones that get caught
Anthony Cook
> a better protocol not hard to beat i2p when it comes to protocol fuckyness. doesn't matter as i2p has more momentum and users.
Connor Bailey
More hops, more security. Less hops, more perfomance.
John Long
>soon
LEL
Hudson Kelly
freenet doesn't have a native implementation and the devs actively oppose the creation of one.
Landon Mitchell
>Last release: 3 years ago It seems dead.
David Reed
It's not. I've lurked their freenode room for years. It's quite active, they're just not big on official releases.
Jace Green
>sudo apt-get install gnunet-gtk Wow, hard.
The only thing wrong with it right now is the UI, fix that and it's easy as shit, especially if you just use it for filesharing. Functionally it's nigh flawless.
Michael Jackson
Most anime watching faggots don't even use linux I don't even think they know how to use a terminal These are the people that continue to shill KCP
Jack Wright
If only we had a web ui
Isaiah Flores
Would a Wangblows version be difficult?
Cameron Powell
if gnunet is already too hard for normies to grasp, i2p is impossible, it won't take off without some retard-proof UI.
Andrew Williams
if you're installing from the terminal, you might as well use the cli for everything
the output of gnunet-search is the verbatim gnunet-download command you want to run
protip: run searches in the background (with a timeout) and pipe the output to a file
Mason King
No one cares about Wintards. They shall not be catered to. If they can see how great this is and have grown sick of the unusable disgusting prisons, they can step up and join us.
