Torrent looks dead here.

Looks like ISPs are blocking it, use I2p (BiglyBT).

 I used utorrent and a VPN starting the download shortly after the link was posted.  It took a while to get going but I was seeing  some pretty good download speeds after a while and dozens of peers.  I had to get sleep for work today so I set it to shutdown when complete and it wasnt running when I checked before work.  I cant wait to check it out tonight.  Based on my preview as it was downloading, Romania was spared.

I prefer not to trust third parties like VPN's, it gives a false sense of security.

Pretty much why we are here is it not to use trust-less systems?

Not too important - it was just for the fun of checking if there's anyone I know, but here's what happened.

I thought: "Blocking DHT? Strange. Never happened here before."

So I installed BiglyBT, got the torrent started without a problem. Stopped BiglyBT, copied the peers over to my usual torrent client, that couldn't start to begin with, and now it's finishing the job. I think I'm making the torrent available to a larger crowd now - though I might be wrong. What's up here?

Careful, they may port block you now if your doing it in the clear.

Funny, nothing illegal about the data but they try their best to protect institutions like facebook.

I would recommend running biglybt for the i2p when you need it and the longer you run it the more trusted you become and the more bandwidth you will receive.

for those interested here is a decent article, I2p really needs to be supported and torrenting in the clear needs to die.

 I suppose I could be more careful but the VPN I chose doesnt log my info and I dont have to do any configuration to have it work properly.  I'm afraid I would mess up an I2P install and end up more insecure than having to trust a VPN.  It's too late now anyway.  You guys know I downloaded it! Now I have no choice but to trust.

VPNs are Lying About Logs

https://restoreprivacy.com/vpn-logs-lies/

A recent court case in Massachusetts has once again proven that some VPN services with “zero log” policies are indeed keeping logs and handing this information over to authorities.

https://www.allthingssecured.com/vpn/truth-about-vpn-logging-policies/

Is there such a thing as a zero log VPN? The short answer is no, there isn’t. In fact, these companies are flat out lying to you when they claim they are a no log VPN. That’s the bad news. The good news is that the more you understand VPN logging, the better prepared you can be to secure yourself.

You guys are aware there are hardware paper wallets nowadays? Don't ever type (or store, the horror!) your seed words keys into a computer device. Ever.

i wonder if there are records for those who "deleted" facebook and yet are still in the database.

Yes, I found a guy that has been dead since 2006.

OK, but did he or one of his relatives make sure that his account got deleted?
I have got a FB account without phone number (not using the mobile app) that got deleted on my request early 2018. I would be interested if my data is included in the leak(s), but i can't find a vital download source atm.

Muchas gracias 
I have downloaded and checked, neither me nor my wife, which is still active on FB, is in the file(s). We both never used and mobile version and i constantly reminded her not ever to enter her real name or telephone number.

The thing I don't understand: BiglyBT just got started on the new torrent as if it was nothing. I didn't even istall i2p. Does BiglyBT install and use it out of the box? Evidently (most of?) the peers weren't on i2p: they smoothly copied over to the regular client, and I can see they're using Vuze, qbittorrent, etc: regular clients. Se it doesn't seem like an ISP issue at all. Why wouldn't my own client work though? I gave it a dozen hours to get the DHT business done, and it didn't even get one peer address until I spoonfed them.

I would recommend running biglybt for the i2p when you need it and the longer you run it the more trusted you become and the more bandwidth you will receive.

I think I understand the issue, and I am a supporter. Tor alone is not enough. We need as many independent resilient networks as possible - i2P, tor, freenet etc. I used to run (and thus help) freenet in the past, but I haven't migrated it to my new box (yet). I couldn't live without Tor. I think one of i2p's strength is being small. It has a whole different set of strengths and vulnerabilities compared to Tor, so it's very much needed diversification IMO.

And even then you are being nice, how long could it take for someone to memorize 12 to 24 seed words in the right order? Even if it took a whole month now you can move your coins without bringing anything with you and instead of measuring this on grams we should do it in neural connections.

One question how much can we trust these third party wallets then? Specially these wallets on our mobile apps. Although they give us access to the private keys but still can we trust them? I have been using Jaxx. But often I will open my wallet to confirm my coins are still there or some developer of Jaxx have already transferred my funds to some cold wallet :p

Ideally you want an open-source wallet so you can at least have some hope that someone without vested interests has had a look.
