Hi Dmitri,

Probably there can be some synergies with Convergence (http://www.peersm.com/Convergence-2020.pdf) "A universal and generic architecture to anonymize any application or protocol and turn it into an independent decentralized p2p network inside browsers and servers, with browsers acting as servers" using https://github.com/Ayms/node-Tor

This is a complete redesign of the initial Convergence proposal from 2015, unlike the initial design it does not specify any longer the upper layers, like peers discovery (most likely based on a DHT) and in your case the distributed file storage/sharing, the idea is simply ouinet.pipe(node-Tor) to secure and anonymize any protocol/app on any platform fix or mobile including browsers

Peers can be clients, serving parties and RDV points at the same time, for now they simply use a hash to request/say what they can do (example : hash(bitcoin) --> I am talking bitcoin, hash(ipfs) --> talking IPFS, hash(file) --> I have this file, etc), peers can serve directly the request or relay via rdv points to another peer that did advertise the hash

This is not to be misunderstood with the Tor network, even if compatible with it

Please let me know your thoughts (note: the project is usable/working since quite some time, so not at a prototype state, but phase4-Evented pipe is partially implemented and not released, phase5-elliptic crypto is not implemented, both I think are mandatory in order for anybody beside myself to be able to easily integrate/use it, right now I must admit that it's not completely trivial even if recently updated/splitted into modules and well documented)

Regards

Aymeric

Thanks, Dmitri. I should note that Stanford Liberationtech has long been a big fan of Equalit.ie and Greenhost, and we recommend your projects often.

    Yes, it will be by all means.

    The project is our next step, following on from
