'''konspire2b''' is a [[peer-to-peer|distributed]], [[deniability|deniable]], strongly-[[pseudonymity|pseudonymous]] distribution system for files over a computer network.  It was designed and implemented by [[Jason Rohrer]]. 

== Overview ==
The aim of a konspire2b network is to transfer files from a publisher to his readers, in a manner which makes best use of the network connections available by all parties.

Once they succeed, there will be 4 nodes capable of sending the file, etc. so bandwidth available to distribute a file grows in proportion to the number of people interested in receiving it.  This aspect gives the network its ''scalable'' properties.

== Technical aspects ==
There is currently a single client implementation called '''kast'''.  It is written in [[C 
(programming language)|C]], and uses a browser-based [[user interface]] which means that it is trivial to install and use on any type of computer or operating-system.

All konspire2b-related software is [[open source]] under the [[GNU General Public License|GNU GPL]]. The konspire2b website uses a [[wiki]] for the purpose of documentation and [[brainstorming]].  There has been a continuing [[linkspam]] [[vandalism]] campaign on the [http://konspire.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?main_page Konspire wiki], and as a result, is no (contracted; show full)
