I2P support anonymous torrents

TOR is good for direct downloads (DDL)

I don't since I live in a third world country. Can seed at 1Gbps with no warnings whatsoever, 20€ monthly

So, that's a "no, I don't use an anonymous network"?

The thing about second/third world countries is that if they don't even care about what you download, they still care about what kind of resources you visit. So, you still have to use various tools for censorship circumvention, and conventional vpn services generally don't work. Thus people often use tor, i2p, etc, but not for downloading (although tor, for instance, often doesn't work without bridges in such countries). And to be honest, downloading via tor is a very bad idea, that's not how it should be used.

I read

I don't since I don't live in a third world country.

Give your country more credit if you have a 1Gbps connection and it doesn't enforce draconian idiotic laws. Just out of curiosity, can you name the country?

I would guess Hungary. It has fast internet, but it also has idiotic laws.
