The wallet software was distributed through i2p and Google Playstore etc. 4 million in 10 years is chump change: a bad year for Hunter B. or a few hours for a casino. This is Red Hairing selective enforcement. They could have sent them to jail for jaywalking. A shame!
I got more info on the MIT Mexi-cans Etherum and it was an internal fight brewing for 4 years. They should give them the PhD (prove here dummy) and a bug bounty but the "victims" are well connected.

Your site has issues, specifically on Java I2P: Unsupported encryption options

Your i2p skills look great. I would have added Postman links to the book. The actual content is recycled crap: XMPP, Retroshare for i2p would have made better sense.
In a lot of cases professionals from Vulkan use pay phones and the Spok network (subscription and equipment). I did have more complicated equipment. Live Long and Prosper!

A little old to be the infamous i2p convict. If you shared the defendants bench with HIM, than I stand corrected.

An issue with 2.5.2+ has been identified and fixed in the latest release and dev updates and the installer on skank.i2p and i2pplus.github.io.

The issue manifests as a gradual loss of peer connections and floodfills. This was due to the temporary blocking of peers sending unsolicited NetDb store requests. Updating to the latest version (2.5.2-11+) is recommended.

Samsung does a lot of evil crap. My computer got hacked through HDMI port connected to a Samsung Smart TV through their software. The phone part is tricky. Some of it is government regulation. Basically Samsung does have to provide the government with any changes that are relevant to the government's "right" to track and disable your phone. It does apply to computers too. One of my tests when I did stateless machines was to trigger a phone call from the government enforcement agency (yes there is such a thing). The "officer" will give you a speech how it is similar with tampering with a car's odometer. I would usually asked them if they are the same people who enforce the mattress safety and police the safety tag removal and hang up. I don't do it anymore. Giving info to idiots... just a bad idea. Pay cash the bill and ask to be excluded and hopefully you don't get charged with insurance fraud. Damn if you do, damn if you don't! Even when you feed expensive lawyers, when your number comes up they'll try to take you out.

The practice zone for new invasive tech? (tech later adopted by towns near you)

Most aren't aware of the 100 mile zone.

Some w/practice don't think rights quite as important within 100 miles of port / border: https://www.aclu.org/documents/constitution-100-mile-border-zone

Over 200 million people live live within 100mile of port / border. Majority of population.

Depending on where you're from they have 30 day visa on arrival or you can just do a 60 day e-visa like I did. I'll renew it soon and may leave the country for a month to explore nearby places while I wait for an education visa (1 year) to be approved. Still trying to figure it all out myself.

Chiang Mai is an incredible area, and being the second city I visited after Bangkok it was a much needed change of pace. Left after a week due to the air quality (could taste the smoke in the air) but will likely return for a while now that it's improved. Really wanted to spend some time in Pai, Chiang Rai and the Mae Hong Song loop area.

Most of the photos are from Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Krabi area. I've since moved on to an area almost too 'local'. As a tall American I sort of stand out like a sore thumb and the language barrier is more of an issue here as fewer things have English translations, though I am always surprised by how well the locals understand English even in these more remote and hard to reach areas. It's just a bit uncomfortable at times when you stand out and is probably the opposite of privacy. I'm just some tall white guy from America that isn't a geriatric British retiree like the few other white people I've seen in this town so I don't really blend in, either in terms of appearance, age, accent, etc.

Walking to the train station in the morning to go check out a different region. A bit bigger than where I am now but still off the beaten path in the sense it's only reachable by train or bus in terms of public transit.

Will post more photos in the future. I just like delaying things I post publicly by a couple of weeks. Not big on doing 'day by day' updates to strangers. :)

I would 1st (of course) take a look at what's already out there, and done in Arch-land, as a point of reference.

Find out what many users desire, (ex: search social media / forums for popular questions. Not only app-wise, but configuration, features.

I'm just guessing here - really depends what you hope to achieve out of your project.

Most users outside the hardcore Archians, will opt for Arch based, easy guided usage / install.

Maybe you want something more easy to work with - or you could keep closer to traditional Arch, and enhance that?

If security is the idea, usability can take some balance. Kicksecure project for Debian serves as a nice example of usable / hardened, if security is one of your goals (might not be the goal if seeking new to Linux users).

Ask yourself what kind of users are you trying to attract out there. Anything from a distro you always wanted to see on a distro, that you felt partly missing?..

That is where I would start.

True on few being uninitiated on the network itself... Videos goal is to help new, never tried it before users into checking out I2P.

Ramble also showing up search engines / clearnet as ramble.pw. Video like this might let a user know "it's not broken, it's under attack". That's why I shared it here, while most users may already know this.

For a while there had trouble updating my i2p blog. Now, network working much better for me, without issue lately (running I2P+ 2.5.1-0+)
