  13. The "cjdns" in the headline links to: https://github.com/cjdelisle/cjdns It looks like TOR with a GPG/PGP web of trust.

  20. The CJDNS whitepaper has a good writeup: https://github.com/cjdelisle/cjdns/blob/master/rfcs/Whitepap... Node to node encryption would make packet inspection rather difficult, for one. BTW, I don't think CJDNS is necessarily going to win.…
