There should be a disclaimer somewhere that Tor is a competitor to I2P, is
far from perfect itself (actually has a few glaring weaknesses, such as exit
nodes), and the guy critiquing I2P works for Tor.

One of the most interesting things to fall out of this entire ordeal is
that we now have a new threat model that regular users will not merely
dismiss as paranoid.

Fully agree. I suspect the released figures showing a spike in FBI
wire-taps may be cover/laundry and indicative of receiving domestic
targetted crime tips from NSA.
Another vector: the UK GCHQ have reportedly on their list of authorized
spying motivations economic well being. That translates

The fastest hardware implementation of RC4 that I know is 2 bytes/clock. I
personally programmed a 1 byte/clock RC4 in a FPGA, it's quite simple.
At 2 bytes/clock you still need a clock of 10 gigahertz to encrypt 100
Gbps. That's unfeasible, the way it's done is using paralelism, then you
can use
I believe Anonymity is a problem orders of magnitude bigger than privacy.
Tor seems like the only serious project aiming at solving it but I think
you should be wise by choosing your enemies and Tor in its current state
is useless against government-type surveillance for the following reasongs
Oops, miscalculation. That should be a 6.5 Ghz clock for 100 Gbps. ((100
Gbps/8)/2) . Anyway I don't think anybody has hardware that fast except
maybe for IBM with the Power8.
