(description
"GNUnet is a framework for secure, peer-to-peer networking. It works in a
decentralized manner and does not rely on any notion of trusted services. One
service implemented on it is censorship-resistant file-sharing. Communication
is encrypted and anonymity is provided by making messages originating from a
peer indistinguishable from those that the peer is routing.")
"GNUnet is a framework for secure peer-to-peer networking that does not
use any centralized or otherwise trusted services. Our high-level goal is to
provide a strong free software foundation for a global network that provides
security and privacy. GNUnet started with an idea for anonymous
censorship-resistant file-sharing, but has grown to incorporate other
applications as well as many generic building blocks for secure networking
applications. In particular, GNUnet now includes the GNU Name System, a
privacy-preserving, decentralized public key infrastructure.")
