===I2P anonymous proxy===
The [[I2P|I2P anonymous network]] ('I2P') is a proxy network aiming at [[internet anonymity|online anonymity]]. It implements [[garlic routing]], which is an enhancement of Tor's onion routing. I2P is fully distributed and works by encrypting all communications in various layers and relaying them through a network of routers run by volunteers in various locations. By keeping the source of the information hidden, I2P offers censorship resistance. The goals of I2P are to protect users' personal freedom, privacy, and ability to conduct confidential business.

Each user of I2P runs an I2P router on their computer (node). The I2P router takes care of finding other peers and building anonymizing tunnels through them. I2P provides proxies for all protocols (HTTP, [[IRC]], SOCKS, ...).
