Tribler: Peer-to-Peer decentralized torrent client
tribler.org

I wanted to gauge interest in Tribler. It claims to be a tor-like p2p client created by privacy researchers. Has anyone had experience with Tribler? Did you get any takedown notices? What were speeds like?

I've tried it before, the speeds are abysmal to the point of being unusable. It took me 3 days to download something that was only 50mb when I last tried it.

I remember those days. Except back then you had the added challenge of finding space for it on your 1.2GB hard drive

Assuming it does use tor: who would've guessed?

It's not tor, it's supposed to be it's own anonymizing network since tor doesn't support UDP or something.
