      GNUnet is a new network protocol stack for building secure, distributed,
      and privacy-preserving applications. With strong roots in academic
      <a href="https://old.gnunet.org/bibliography">research</a>, our goal is to replace the
      <a href="https://secushare.org/broken-internet">old insecure Internet</a>
      protocol stack.

        websites) your vehicle might get hijacked, damaged, or long
        arms might reach into its back and steal your items (data) to
        use it against you and sell it to others - while you can't
