This is really interesting, but I guess I don’t fully understand it. Does this replace your ISP (like Comcast for example), or am I just reconfiguring my browser to access these sites and not send my traffic through the regular Internet?

What AI had to say about it:

Yes, I2P (Invisible Internet Project) does require an internet service provider (ISP) for its functionality. While I2P is a decentralized network, it relies on your existing internet connection to function. You still need an ISP to connect to the internet and access I2P’s network.

I don’t really understand it either. Sounds like a series of tubes.

Nah, you run it over your existing ISP connection but set up an “i2p router” on a PC / laptop / server to connect to others on the i2p network.

Here’s a vid on some discussion about what it is

It’s kinda like Tor, but different, more secure from what I understand. You also can’t access normal internet sites while properly connected to i2p
