Why Tribler; Το πρωτόκολλο Bittorrent χρησιμοποιεί απευθείας συνδέσεις μεταξύ των χρηστών του από προεπιλογή. Αυτό σημαίνει ότι κάθε φορά που τοποθετείτε ένα torrent σε ένα client like uTorrent, seeders and torrent downloaders can see your IP.
The basic problem with the Bittorrent protocol connections is that it is very easy for someone to find the users. Some companies even use this feature to track torrents downloaders and seeders as there is no anonymity in the process.
Κατά καιρούς έχουν δημιουργηθεί ορισμένες υπηρεσίες και τεχνικές για την προστασία των χρηστών του torrent. τους χρήστες από αυτό. Για παράδειγμα, υπάρχουν proxies που μπορούν να κρύψουν την αληθινή IP. To proxy μπαίνει μεταξύ της συσκευής του χρήστη και των άλλων συσκευών που ανεβάζουν ή κατεβάζουν το torrent, και αποκρύπτει την αληθινή IP.
But true IP exists in the log of the company running the proxy, and it is very easy for authorities to request logs from these companies.
What does Tribler do?
The Tribler comes to improve the privacy of Bittorrent users by using multiple proxy layers instead of a single proxy. One of the main advantages of this approach is that you do not have to trust a single proxy server:
- The seeder is connected to the first proxy, and the data transmitted here is encrypted.
- The second proxy sits between the first and the third, and will continue to encrypt the data.
- The third proxy. is the only one connected to your device directly. It is also connected to the second proxy.
One of the problems with this system is that the seeder is still unprotected. Tribler plans to change that by using similar mediation chains to improve seeder privacy.

According to the development team, the anonymity layer for downloaders is expected to be released in the fall.
Another interesting feature of Tribler is the fact that the search for proletterτος τροφοδοτείται από συνδέσεις peer to peer και όχι ένα κεντρικό server που χρησιμοποιεί τα δεδομένα του χρήστη για να επιστρέψει τα αποτελέσματα αναζήτησης.
How fast will it be?
According to the manufacturers of speed is not affected, of course in Greece with the existing connections we cannot have the pick of the results in case of a test.
