Looks like a promising project although I would prefer to see it open source and non-commercial (even if the 5 second start-up screen in the free version is a minor inconvenience). Anyway, it is nice to see that the JXTA platform has matured to a point where practical p2p applications can be built on it.

The claim for total anonymity is a bit exaggerated IMO. As AweShucks pointed out, a third party in a position to do external traffic analysis could still track movements of the content (at least to some degree). Group sizes also matter: the bigger the group the better anonymity it can provide to its members.

Thanks again to our vigilant and fearless special operations man!
