Lokinet

Here's Chris discussing the Lokinet Exit Marketplace announcement, and some future plans 👇 youtube.com/watch?v=l4iFne…

Lokinet hides your IP and hides the IPs you connect to. Your location and identity are unknown.

Lokinet is powered by a decentralised network of staked nodes. Nobody can shut it down. Nobody can spy on you.

With no central authority controlling the network, content hosted over Lokinet can’t be censored.

Anonymous internet access means more than just anonymising your web browsing — it's anonymising any web app.

libQUIC integration in Lokinet means better performance, better security, better connection migration. On top of that, it's a stepping stone to a cross-platform Lokinet.

Privacy isn't a luxury, it's a necessity. Lokinet makes it a reality.

Lokinet integration into @session_app by the end of the year, and with that comes the possibility of onion-routed phone calls. Or as we like to call them... Onion Rings.

Lokinet is more than just an onion-routing protocol, it's a new way to interact with the internet.

Anything that fits inside an IP packet, Lokinet can make private. That's the power of Lokinet.

There is a lot of interest in Lokinet on Mobile, which is one of the reasons why QUIC Protocol integration is so important. With QUIC comes a huge improvement to connection migration, meaning seamless transitions between Wi-Fi and mobile networks without affecting data transfer.

When you’re browsing through a Lokinet exit node, no other server, anywhere on the internet, ever gets the complete picture about what you’re accessing.

Using Lokinet’s Exit Nodes, all internet traffic from your computer can be onion-routed over Lokinet — this prevents people knowing which websites you are visiting. Your ISP may be able to see you are accessing Lokinet, but they will not know what websites you are looking at

A key issue with VPN's is some require you to place your trust with the provider. You trust that your IP address and information about the websites you visit will be kept private and secure, but not all VPN providers will do that. Which VPN provider has the worst track record?

🌐 @lokinet_org is our low-latency onion-routing protocol, capable of anonymously routing any UDP and TCP data packets. Built on $OXEN, it's designed to provide a fast, dynamic, and adaptable solution for users who want to use the internet without compromising their privacy.

This is what an onion-router really looks like

One major benefit to Lokinet is that it operates on the Network Layer. This means you don't need a specialised browser, extensions, or scripts to make Lokinet work. All you need is the Lokinet application running on your computer.

Built to run on the $OXEN Service Node network, @Lokinet_org is turning the table on data tracking. You'll be able to surf the web like never before — unwatched, unhindered, unchained 🌐

What is an Exit Node? Exit nodes are specialised nodes that allow you to ‘exit’ Lokinet and access the regular internet. This means all the things you’d normally do on the internet, all that traffic can now be anonymised by Lokinet's onion-routing. It's like a VPN, but better.
