RShare

• Tweet

Users of RShare are anonymous within the network. Nobody can recognize, who downloads what or offers which files. Neither the sender nor the receiver can be identified, since the clear allocation between a participant and its IP Address is impossible.

Due to the strong encryption of all traffic it is not comprehensible, which kind of files are transferred. RShare anonymity workings Compared with server-based filesharing systems like eDonkey2000 there are no central or dedicated servers within the RShare network so correlation of IP addresses to files is nearly impossible. Conventional serverless filesharing networks maintain direct connections between participating clients (FastTrack/Kazaa, Kademlia, Gnutella or BitTorrent).

In contrast RShare clients use never direct connections, the network traffic is rather routed trough several other RShare nodes/clients. IP addresses of senders and recipients in the RShare network are hidden. Instead of IP addresses so-called RShare IDs are used which canīt be correlated with IP addresses. In addition all data routed between RShare nodes is encrypted so even ISPs canīt analyze transmitted data to check if you are doing some kind of filesharing.

RShare Features:

• Anonymous filesharing by routing traffic over other network-nodes
• Point-to-Point Encryption (RSA + Rijndael)
• Multisource-Downloading
• Download-Resuming
• Good search functionalities
• Comment the quality of files
• Statistics-Functions
• Auto-Update-Function
• Network-Flooding-Protection
• Leeching-Protection
• RShare is open-source. So it offers the certainty, that it does not contain any hidden functions.
