<h2>RetroShare</h2>
<i><a href="http://retroshare.net">[RetroShare]</a></i>
<p>{% trans f2fwiki='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friend-to-friend' -%}
RetroShare is a set of peer-to-peer applications running in a
<a href="{{ f2fwiki }}">Friend-to-friend (F2F)</a> network. Each peer of such F2F
network makes direct IP connections only to authenticated peers ("friends") after explicit
certificates exchange. It can discover unauthenticated peers (e.g. friends of friends),
but connections to them are relayed over "friend" peers for providing privacy and anonymity.

<p>{% trans -%}
RetroShare is designed to build a private network of trusted peers, while I2P is designed
to be a large-scaled public anonymous network. Recent versions of RetroShare have options to run
as a public "darknet" by using I2P or Tor as a transport. That way all connections are
anonymized and no trust is required for adding new "friends".
