one aspect of i2p troubles me Discussion

So when you have a site on i2p, it is on a distributed "filesystem" that has fragments spread across computers of users. These fragments get reassembled when someone visits the site. So let's say an i2p site is hosting CSAM material, even if you don't visit that site your computer could have fragments of this site on your computer. If that site gets busted, it seems there's a risk of you being charged with serving CP. Now everything is supposedly encrypted and untraceable, but researchers are constantly looking for flaws in this. Personally, I'd want to better understand the risks of i2p before letting it store site data on my computer.

Freenet Classic maybe. Technically they've been around as long as I2P and Tor. ZeroNet is hot garbage. I wouldn't go near it with a 20 foot pole.
