The FreePN network daemon (fpnd) is a P2P implementation of a distributed virtual private network (dVPN) that creates an anonymous “cloud” of peers where each peer is both a client node and an exit node. Peers are randomly connected on startup and reconnected to new (random) peers as needed.
“Save $5/mo and get accused of pedophilia” could be their slogan.
I’ve always thought we need anonyimity at the router level (like an anonymous DHT mesh), but I know that’d probably be impossible to have reasonable speeds with something like that…
No that exists, you just have a virtual router, like with Tor and i2p. You can run that on a raspberry pi with its own wifi and have an anonymous router.
I’m aware that exists at a higher level, but I meant at the literal routing level (level 3 on OSI if I remember it right). Then everything is anonymized by default, not just things you proxy over Tor/I2P/etc. Anonymity should be the default, not the exception.
A free & anonymous meshnet is just a pipedream of mine more than anything. Albeit I know there are versions of this idea, but they often exists within a tiny 1-5 mile bubble in some random state/country, and usually exist seperate from the clearnet.

oof that’s dangerous
