Riseup is free because it is made by people who want the internet to be better. The same way tor is free.
But you should be donating if you find it useful. And I could nearly guarantee that a service that is used for censorship resistance that gets used for P2P will go from nice and fast to ungodly slow
Kinda remember there being similar discussions about people should not use TOR for P2P and for similar reasons.
Anyway, I thought I read something awhile back that P2P and torrenting were eyeing I2P for future anonymousness. Is thhat still a work in progress or am I remembering wrong?
I2P still has torrenting. They have an I2P tracker as well iirc. The problem is that it's not as "simple" as the standard vpn+torrnet. As you need an i2p aware torrent client, proxy the torrent client, and then actually get good enough peers. For popular content sure, but the amount of people using realdebrid or other 'streaming' services are insane now.
Understood, and I don't think anyone should be trusting Tor either, at least not in the US.
