Invisible Internet Protocol (daemon)
====================================
i2pd (I2P Daemon) is a fully-featured C++ daemon to enable application-independent
use of I2P.

I2P and Tor have some similarities, but they are completely different technologies.
Tor is designed to act as an anonymous proxy for the regular Internet, and I2P is
a network layer wherein all network participants adhere to a protocol that protects
the anonymity and privacy of all communications between users.
Tor is designed to act as an anonymous proxy for the regular Internet, and I2P
is specifically designed to make a virtual anonymous network for hidden services
and p2p applications.
Tor Project was started by the US military and receives most of its funds
from the government, while I2P was started by a community of independent civilians.
Tor is highly centralized by design, while I2P is less so.
Tor is highly centralized by design, while I2P is designed to be decentralized and distributed.
