OneSwarm: Privacy preserving P2P

OneSwarm is a new peer-to-peer tool that provides users with explicit control over their privacy by letting them determine how data is shared. Instead of sharing data indiscriminately, data shared with OneSwarm can be made public, it can be shared with friends, shared with some friends but not others, and so forth. We call this friend-to-friend (F2F) data sharing.

In fact, most of the people who spend their days "Facebooking," never seem to take the time to worry about who's seeing what...until it's too late.
