>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?

Was it brought up in the threads that the developers are planning on breaking compatibility with the next minor version? That means everything that's been uploaded and being uploaded will be gone in the next minor update.
Logan Turner
Yeah I think so. I think they might release it later this year.
Dominic Allen
I wouldn't hold my breath. I talked to them the last time GNUnet surged in popularity on Sup Forums; they seemed almost completely indifferent to the fact more people were using it, and they were on the current version back then, too. Their "solution" to breaking compatibility was to get the next update out as soon as possible. A few years later and we're no closer to release than last time.
Andrew Wright
I think the last time I tried GNUnet was in 2015 Q3 and tried it with me publishing a wallpaper and another downloading it. The speed was really slow since neither of us noticed the configuration. Now it's literally no different from then and now really. Honestly I don't know why the developer are so reluctant to even release minor versions. They're gonna delay it for so long that it makes up for breaking compatibility?
Jace Carter
I think they just don't want to admit that they've pretty much abandoned it, which sucks since we've seen this week what happens when everything is centralized the way it is. At this point I'd even recommend Sup Forums starting its own GNUnet clone with a focus on not being shitty. It'd probably get stable enough to use before GNUnet gets off its ass and updates.
Justin Bennett
>At this point I'd even recommend Sup Forums starting its own GNUnet clone after seeing Sup Forums projects like lo/g/os and ricedb abandoned, I'm not too sure about Sup Forums doing a GNUnet clone. yes it can start up and happen, but really it's likely to be short lived unless if it happens to be really actively discussed and looked on every day
Chase Cox
I don't know about uploads not staying, but I know 0.10.1 links do not work in the latest git version.
Fingers crossed for a new router implementation that actually works.
Carter Bell
>after seeing Sup Forums projects like lo/g/os and ricedb That should tell you how little faith I have in the GNUnet project succeeding. Timing is everything, so if we were to start up some Sup ForumsNUnet of our own, it'd have to be soon to ride on the panic of nyaa going down.
Joshua Clark
It won't be ready in time. Even if we assume overly fast development, I don't think we would be able to catch up. One can dream, though, if I were to make it I'd use C-ish C++ with libuv, and focus on filesharing part mainly.
Carson Nguyen
How is the plugin framework for this? They should document the API and it would be 10x faster development.
Parker Harris
There is none, it's developed badly. It needs a rewrite.
Brody Diaz
It's crazy that some chinese cartoon hub finally FINALLY pushes a new net protocol but now that the dam is being patched, its cool. Shit like this and so many that perished in past times shouldn't happen again. It's literally the history of the net, a culture and society in and of itself. Yeah, change comes quick but should the past be forgotten just as fast so we all suffer the fates of years past?

Wait, that's where publicity is coming from? I was wondering why GNUnet talk suddenly picked up when I couldn't find anything about it on niche boards.

The REST APIs aren't done yet which is why it's just a GSoC thing.

Aiden Allen
Unironically, I was one of early guys who helped meming IPFS aswell, and while it's definitelly in better state than GNUnet, it still eats gallions of ram because of golang's GC, and tor and i2p support is still unfinished.
Regardless of its current state, though, how'd you host tracker for IPFS exactly? In particular, search is kind of tricky. I was thinking of making indexes of keywords, and publishing them on IPNS. Something like "/ipns//k/anime" "/ipns//k/madoka" etc... These would be either text listing files or directories. Then we could write some javascript which would basically download every keyword index used in search and filter only results included in all of these keyword files/directories.
Uploading of new content would still require centralised host (or set of hosts), but this would be impossible to take down.
Dylan Reyes
it does more than that, don't fall into memes

they just have to fix two crashes and they're ready for a new release basically
Cooper Gutierrez
Those ARE usability improvements, you dongus. >Creating a modern, attractive web interface will allow containerizing it via Docker or some other technology, at which point it becomes "set up a Raspberry Pi 3 or later and run this small set of commands to get it running" rather than the utter clusterfuck it is right now. >IMAP/SMTP integration allows people to use standard email clients to use its secure communication platform without having to spend forever setting up fiddly crypto-aware email stuff like PGP >Android app exposes it to a fucking BILLION PEOPLE, which massively helps the popularity problem if even 0.1% of Android users pick it up, and the Android APIs make it much easier to write a modern looking UI than shit like the abortion that is gnunet-gtk >Rust API wrapper makes it possible to write safe, secure applications that use the GNUnet APIs
About the only things you'd need other than that are protocol improvements, which are for the core devs to do and not GSoC kiddies.
Joshua Phillips
Hey guys, first time posting in these threads. I'm sure you all get this question 100 times daily, but please humor me:
What benefits does GNUnet have over ipfs, i2p, and tor's .onion domains, and why would someone use GNUnet over competing systems?
Jayden Wright

Asher Thompson
Thanks, this looks interesting I'll read some of the stuff linked in the guide
Ethan Richardson
every word of this post is on point
Alexander Bell
Screw it, someone just take frostwire and make it run over gnunet's network stack.
Bentley Perry
OK, so there's a new version of GNUnet in the pipeline with exactly two blocking tickets. Any C programmers want to take a crack at these?
The GSoC ideas are proof the project wants to fix that but is short on manpower. Nut up or shut up.
Blake Gonzalez
It's a GNU project. They're all like that except the coreutils. Help dev or at least talk about ideas.

Ethan Ramirez
If it's nonfree then no deal.
Angel Davis
I think that's gnutella. Think older p2p file sharing programs like LimeWire.
going through all that work just to have your name written on some paper but I guess that's how all of academia works Also, what does this mean: >•We find that offenders using Tor use it inconsitently. Over 60% of linkable user sessions send traffic from non-Tor IPs at least once after first using Tor, thus removing its protection; over 90% of sessions observed on three or more days fail likewise How exactly does this work? Do they access something from Tor then access that same thing without Tor, or do they access a site with Tor, then open some other website without Tor on their normal browser? How do you link those 2 together?
Gabriel Brown
>How exactly does this work?
Seems they enabled Tor to download CP, then disabled it to download other files, unaware that these networks have a persistent GUID associated with each peer.
Leo Hill
ah right, forgot this was about p2p networks Is this supposed to be Yugoslavia, in 2010?
Michael Taylor
Wow, that article literally educates people on how to download cp safely
Can't research security without attacking it
Jordan Hernandez

Colton Ward
Tor has a problem that if you're being spied on already and the spy owns the entrance node to the network and either the exit node or the hidden service you're connecting to, they can use traffic analysis to determine whether you're responsible for certain messages, with very high probability.
Gnunet is resistant to those traffic analysis attacks because of cover traffic.
Brayden Gomez
Well if the exit node and your isp are attacking you at the same time, then chances are you're already up against national to global level adversaries.
Not much you can do really. If the fucking CIA niggers want to torture you to death, they're probably already on their way to do it
However, examples exist of attitudes towards child pornography in online communities (not paedophilic) that differ from society at large. The prominent Sup Forums community online attracts 15 million users each quarter and has been described as “a surreptitious cultural powerhouse” (Sauthoff, 2009, p. 1). Although the Sup Forums site forbids illicit material (see Sup Forums.org/rules), the appearance of explicit child pornography images on Sup Forums noticeboards has been reported (Rushkoff, 2009). This behaviour has been interpreted as a signal of defiance against censorship and an assertion of the free flow of information on the Internet, irrespective of its form (Rushkoff, 2009). Notwithstanding the potential that child pornography was used for non-sexual purposes, arguably the behaviour demonstrates a degree of tolerance for the material among some Sup Forums users
Easton Butler
>Sup Forums fucking normalfags
Benjamin Perry
>being tolerant of paedophilia >being a pedophile
fuck you 4Channer
Jaxon Long
This isn't an issue with Tor because it needs the spy to own every single node you're connected to. The Snowden leaks showed that the NSA abandoned this type of attack because they could not possibly do it, and it was easier to slander Tor online to discourage people from using it.
