Some even went as far as shutting down voluntarily, like BTjunkie. Recent crackdowns have made operators of central file-sharing sites and services more cautious of copyright infringement. But, a safe assumption is that anonymity will play a more central role than it ever has. A network where you will not face the threat of jail, or being banned from entry into a country for an innocent tweet." It's impossible to accurately predict what file-sharing will look like 5 years from now. A network that allows you to use any pseudonym, without insisting on knowing your real name. "RetroShare is free from censorship: like Facebook banning ‘obscene' breast-feeding photographs. This is vitally important as our freedom on the Internet is under increasing threat," DrBob told TorrentFreak. A space that is free from the prying eyes of governments, corporations and advertisers. A social collaboration network where you can share anything you want. At the moment we are getting 10 times more downloads than in December 2011." RetroShare's founder believes that there is an increased need for security, privacy and freedom among file-sharers, features that are at the core of his application."RetroShare is about creating a private space on the Internet. It more than doubled again in February, when cyberlockers disabled sharing or shut down entirely. "In January our downloads tripled when interest in SOPA was at its peak. "The interest in RetroShare has massively shot up over the last two months," he said. RetroShare founder DrBob stated that while the software has been around since 2006, all of a sudden there's been a surge in downloads. From a Mint Terminal Cli you can also run it via RetroShare in the Launch Option correct from /usr/bin/retroshare to /usr/bin/RetroShare and your'e good to go. Note: After installing right-click on the Gnome or Kmenu for RetroShare and edit the launch from retroshare to RetroShare to remedy that oversight. RetroShare provides filesharing, chat, messages, forums and channels. It lets you to securely chat and share files with your friends and family, using a web-of-trust to authenticate peers and OpenSSL to encrypt all communication. RetroShare is a Open Source cross-platform, private and secure decentralised communication platform. Retroshare Provides Private and Secure file sharing and communications with your friends. These programs provide private and encrypted file-sharing with a secure decentralised platform providing Linux Mint users with more security and that is the very basis of the Mint Community, providing the utmost in security to it's users. However given today's police-state mentality for Internet usage, not only should they both be available thru the Synaptic package handler, Retroshare and Tribler should both be included with the Linux Mint standard installation. Neither Retroshare nor Tribler for some unknown reason are even found in the Linux Mint Synaptic package handler.
