I2P's Threat Model - I2P
Your level of anonymity can be described as "how hard it is for someone to find out information you don't want them to know?" - who you are, where you are located, who you communicate with, or even when you communicate. "Perfect" anonymity is not a useful concept here - software will not make you indistinguishable from people that don't use computers or who are not on the Internet. Instead, we are working to provide sufficient anonymity to meet the real needs of whomever we can - from those simply browsing websites, to those exchanging data, to those fearful of discovery by powerful organizations or states.
The question of whether I2P provides sufficient anonymity for your particular needs is a hard one, but this page will hopefully assist in answering that question by exploring how I2P operates under various attacks so that you may decide whether it meets your needs.
We welcome further research and analysis on I2P's resistance to the threats described below. More review of existing literature (much of it focused on Tor) and original work focused on I2P is needed.
