still no way to get past the spam filter (WTF).

So have ha picture of my key, maybe OCR can import it easily.
ALternatively I post it on volafile or embedd it in a picture, but both seems a bit retarded.

Come to think of it, I recall having the same problem with IPFS hashes a while ago.

wow, so much interest. Lol.

Anyway, I managed to embed my ID in this picture
I used http://manytools.org/hacker-tools/steganography-encode-text-into-image/

They also have the decoding functionality and the site seems reasonably trustworthy.

Hope it works this time

I looked into alternate internet stuff a few years ago and also right retroshare looked like the best secure useable platform. As well as maybe gnunet. I don't use it though because I have no friends.

/g/ is much slower than /pol/ opie

>>61707471
well, looksl like im your new best friend.
I posted my ID in another thread (which does not have a retarded spamfilter like /g/):
>>>/pol/135989689


Also I too tried out GNUnet and found it unbearably slow.

>>61707535
yeah but this thread had been past page 5 twice already. figured there would be more interest.

>>61706735
Forgot the link to Retroshare by the way:

http://retroshare.net/

I miss the old retroshare threads ;_;

add me on retrshare motherfuckers


https://pastebin.com/pP8banKM

If anyone cares, I got about 80k files in my folders. Mostly ebooks. But a few movies and series too. On BitTorrent I can usually do upload rates of several MB/s so speed should not be a problem I think

>>61707788
never saw them.
They were popular?

Then again I only rarely visit /g/ nowadays.

>>61707864
Ohh, right.
Why did I not think of that actually?

>>61707916

Why wouldn't you use pastebin, dipshit?

add me motherfukcer

>>61706735
So how is this different from zeronet and freenet?

>>61706735
intredasting
is there a for-dummies-tutorial how to set up shares and such? can people using this see your ip and such?

why poorfag not add me


suck my dick

>>61708014
Idk, did not think about it.
Never used it to post anything until now, only to read stuff

>>61708071
done


>>61708117
idk about zeronet but compared to freenet it actually works, and it has forum, email and chat functions built in.

>>61708143
its really just two clicks. Go to "Files" and add folders.

>>61708150
I added you

>>61708165
>its really just two clicks. Go to "Files" and add folders.
so no ssl-certificate whatevers or port openingers or such like with secure ftp?

>>61708178
not if your router supports Upnp
But that is unrelated to filesharing anyway, thats something you do when you set up RS as a whole

>>61706962
Make QR code with your ID and post it.

>>61708261
thought about it but now with pastebin it seems overly complicated

How safe and secure retro share?

>>61708326
100% safe and secure. Its Web of Trust based, you decide whose certificate you sign and everything is encrypted using strong cryptography.

Also message boards and emails are distributed so they cannot be taken down.
In fact RS does not use any servers, everything is done from node to node. And it has been developed for many years now, no chance of it suddenly dissapearing

>>61708165
how can i add you

you cant post your key


god dammmmmmmmmm

>>61708342
I'm asking because during the nyaa incident, it was suggested, so is it feasible to be used as such?

>>61708346
I did post it and link to it.
I will put it on pastebin:

https://pastebin.com/2XyR4Ei6

>>61708366
yeah pretty much.
The message board functions plus the file sharing function would work well.
Message board alone would work already since you can attach files (like torrents) to the posts and search them

>>61708383
Is it possible to use it to host sites?

>>61708390
well you "host" message boards, chatrooms and channels (something like facebook walls/twitter) but its inherently distributed so its you and whoever else that cares about that hosts the content.

Why isn't this not popular?

So since it's distributed it reveals you ip = your name and dress for law enforcement

Not very secure, about as secure as public torrents then.

Why do I feel like retroshare is CP fertile ground.

>>61708633
It's private but not anonymous. Honeypots are WAY too easy to set up.

>>61708658
Then it's not suitable to share weeb cartoon.

>>61708610
It's secure, not private. Fucking retard

>>61708528
I have no idea.
But even I who likes to stay on top of news developments in computer science and related topics, particularly encryption and privacy related, have only started it yesterday.

To be honest I have heard the name "retroshare" many times in the past. But it sounded like a Rapidshare knowckoff. Always thought it was either that or just another file sharing program.

Well it is the latter of course, but so much more.

>>61708610
No.
To reveal anything to law enforcement you would have to manually add them to your contacts

>>61708633
well you can always distrust nodes that host this crap. But since it does not have the strong anonymizing features of TOR (well it can use Tor but not directly built in) the risk for anyone peddling CP is much much higher.

>>61708670
yes it is.
nyaa had way less safety for example and still everyone used it and nothing happened.
If you are super paranoid you can always share the magnet links instead of the actual torrents, that way you are 100% safe.

see pic. People have no problem sharing music on the channels for example

>>61708686
it is _reasonably_ private

>>61708717
>All those russian channels
What do you mean by "reasonably" private?

>>61708958
yeah those are funny

>What do you mean by "reasonably" private?
Thats pretty much self-explanatory.
You decide with whom you connect and who you trust. Thats pretty private.
Also no servers or other central instances where spies could harm you.

All these stupid fags adding random anons. Enjoy getting v& retards.

Soulseek is better

>>61709229
So what's stopping people from posting illegal stuff?

>>61709615
the human will to do the right thing (aka nothing whatsoever)

>>61709615
Because it's not anonymous you can get tracked.

>>61709230
yeah im sure that the police has nothing better to do than pose as anon on RS and arrest people (from all over the world) for the crime of adding them.

This makes perfect sense.

>>61709479
Does it also have distributed message boards and email?

>>61709615
The WoT.
Besides you do not really "post" illegal stuff to a server or anything. You have stuff on your node (can be files, message boards, emails, threads, channels...) and others can take it whereupon its on their node too.

Illegal stuff will not be hosted at all or at least not very often.
Nodes hosting illegal stuff can be downvoted by signature.
Good nodes become well reputed and better connected, bad nodes wither away.

>>61709629
basically this. Not doing anything = content stays on only one single node

>>61709649
only if you add the tracking node to your friends.
Sof for all intends and purposes: no, not because of tracking.

last bump before I go shopping

>>61709760
Child pornography is a global offense and these kinds of secret/private groups (esp. from 4chan) are used to distribute it.

>>61711346
yeah no. Its all done over tor and onion sites today.

And as I explained: its easy to stop it from spreading on Retroshare

>>61708165
>compared to freenet it actually works,
How does Freenet not work?

>http only website.
Sounds like a botnet.

>>61712111
too complex to explain in 2000 characters:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freenet

(read the sources and the academic papers too)

>>61712412
just download the publicly viewable source and compile it yourself then.

>>61713517
>too complex to explain in 2000 characters blah blah
Did you miss the "not" in my post?

>>61713571
actually I did. whoops.

Freenet is ultra-slow. Pre-5.6kb slow.

no one interested in RS anymore?

>>61715830
show me the code baby

Don't feel like reading through their docs so maybe someone can spoonfeed me and answer my questions.

If I wanted to download something from somebody can they see my IP address? Can I see theirs?
If a group of users has downloaded what I want to download, do they assist in the downloading process (seeding)?
What does my isp see when I am downloading things?
Is it safe to use it without a vpn?

>>61714711
It's also 100% a honeypot.

Can I use my VPN with this?
