The drawback is having to download so much of the blockchain onto your hardrive. Vulnerabilities would be in the python nature of the application as long as you are browsing with adblocker+block images+no javascript+block fonts for your webbrowser and not using a botnet like chrome. Otherwise compare to the cluckfare MITM'd its like gold, especially if the site is served over IPFS in the upcoming zeronet releases.

As far as I can tell, js is fundamental to ZeroNet, and you can't browse "zites" without it. js creates a huge attack surface, which doesn't totally render Tor (not TOR) useless, but certainly puts a dent in it.

By design, you're storing and updating local copies of zites on your computer. Let's say you visit a chan bunker zite. You don't frequent it--almost nobody does--but it gets automatically updated in the background. One week, somebody uploads a bunch of CP to the zite. It gets automatically downloaded to your computer. How long until you notice it and purge your hard drive?

Yes, I know, muh decentralization maymay, but if people are willing to go to the trouble of downloading and configuring Tor to work with ZeroNet, why not just take ZeroNet out of the equation and have somebody host a Tor hidden service? v3 hidden services are coming soon.

If you really want decentralization, there's Freenet.

Wasn't there some shit where you could just send modified json to anyone without any verification?

My understanding of the Nullchan/Millchan implementation is that your local system only stores the site framework plus your own files, and then whatever user content you directly access. Or put more simply, unless you actually click on some CP, it doesn't go onto your drive.

Is it illegal to have thumbnails in your web cache? Wouldn't it be pretty damn difficult to prove intent, if the content wasn't manually downloaded?

>>894881

Yes, web cache is considered a forensic artifact when conducting investigations in the UK.

> if the content wasn't manually downloaded?

That's the thing though, nothing in p2p web is manually downloaded.

It's done in the background and you become a seeder to other users.

Simply going to the site in this case would be enough to get v&'d.

>>894881

You have to have intent to be viewing CP. If there is no intent it's fine or is it?

>>894811

They are optional files.

That means they are only downloaded if there is a GET request to fetch them.

The lazy loading that Millchan uses restricts the generation of those requests meaning that images are only downloaded if they are visible on screen.

ebin, are you sure you don't have some reddit thread you should be posting on?

Guys I don't want to FUD or be the bearer of bad news, but anything resembling a chan will die in a couple of years, doesn't matter if it's clearnet, darknet, zeronet, or whatevernet.

Please elaborate. By what way? Legislation?

>>896644

FOSTA, it just got signed into law.

OK but everyone who has bitcoin blockchain in posession has CP and everyone who is mining is sharing CP. How is bitcoin not banned yet?

The US government can't even balance their checkbook. You give them way too much credit. At the very worst, you have pay for a VPN to visit websites not in the US. It aint gonna be shit.

>>896680

Because they can pick and choose to ban whatever they want. In their ideal world, everyone would be guilty of a crime and the government could choose to punish or not based on whether it would benefit them.

>>896736

I'm so tired of this argument. Yes, governments are generally inefficient. No, that doesn't mean they aren't capable of massive social changes. Why? The US government is effectively able to control the flow of trillions of dollars. With that kind of money at play, you can make damn near anything happen.

>>896630

And how exactly do you propose the US government shut down an imageboard hosted in Malaysia and exclusively accessible on the darknet? Or one that's I2P and only used by people behind 7 proxies?

Don't be retarded. The US isn't the world, and there's so many ways to hide what sites you're visiting and hosting, they can't shut it all down. Even fucking China hasn't managed it.

Yeah the USA has never been able to shutdown illegal darknet sites before.

If this is a bunker/failsafe

why not make it text only and have a word filter for onion links? do we need reaction images that badly?
