**Somewhere, NH** -- Internet search company `DuckDuckGo`_ `donates`_
|
|
$5000 to the `Invisible Internet Project`_ (I2P) as part of their yearly open-source
|
|
donation program. The award was granted on the basis of `nominations`_ by members of the public
|
|
on the DuckDuckGo community portal. With an emphasis on privacy, DuckDuckGo provides a search
|
|
engine which does not track its users or store personal data. I2P is an anonymous network intended to
|
|
protect individuals from dragnet surveillance regularly performed by ISPs and governments.

This marks the single largest donation ever received by I2P and reflects a growing interest in
|
|
privacy and security by the Internet community. The funding will help I2P to reach more users, expand
|
|
development, and audit the code. It will also enable I2P developers to attend conferences, such
|
|
as the `Real-World Cryptography`_ conference in New York City, where the developers met and
|
|
collaborated with cryptography experts pursuant to I2P's goals of providing anonymity to the
|
|
public.

|
|
and the I2P community for its support in the `nominations`_.
