| 404 | 167 =head2 IRC Channels |
| 168 | |
| 169 The activity level on #anonet got a bit too high (especially with all the bots), so some new channels have been added. Here are the currently known channels: | |
| 170 | |
| 171 =over | |
| 172 | |
| 173 =item #anonet (chat/anonet) | |
| 174 | |
| 175 This is the main channel for AnoNet-related discussion. All AnoNet2 IRC servers carry this channel. | |
| 176 | |
| 177 =item #talk (chat/talk) | |
| 178 | |
| 179 This is a new channel for general talk, and at least for now it is the home of most of our bots. Only sevil and SRN IRC servers carry this channel. | |
| 180 | |
| 181 =item #1984 (chat/1984) | |
| 182 | |
| 420 | 183 This is a channel that BrainBox requested. Most SRN IRC servers carry it. |
| 404 | 184 |
| 185 =back | |
| 186 | |
| 187 Creating a new channel is done the traditional way (just /join it), | |
| 188 but linking the channel through the udpmsg3 cloud requires a little | |
| 416 | 189 bit of configuration for all current udpmsg3 clients. SRN is happy |
| 190 to reconfigure his stuff for any new channel. L<SRN's new UDPMSG4 IRC | |
| 191 server|http://www.powerfulproxy.com/do_it.php/http/www.srw.ano/udpmsg4ircd> | |
| 192 doesn't require any special configuration. Just join a new channel on | |
| 193 irc3.srn.ano, and it will immediately exist on the udpmsg4 cloud. | |

| 203 | 251 If you're interested in starting your own darknet, you can get plenty of |
| 252 advice here. In addition, the AnoNet2 infrastructure is easy to reuse | |
| 253 for any other darknet, by design. (Technical ease of forking is a core | |
| 254 goal of AnoNet2. We avoid forks only by being good enough so nobody | |
| 255 feels the need to fork AnoNet2.) | |

| 260 Since the "public" Internet is owned and managed by a number of | |
| 261 multinational corporations, it's fairly easy for governments to regulate | |
| 262 it. Part of the main purpose behind AnoNet has always been to get away | |
| 263 from those private control points, in order to create a truly public | |
| 264 internet. In AnoNet1, anybody who can regulate crzydmnd can regulate | |
| 265 AnoNet1's "official" wiki (and by extension, its resource "database"), | |
| 266 and anybody who can regulate Kaos can regulate AnoNet1's "official" | |
| 267 client port (and by extension, all new AnoNet1 users), so the private | |
| 268 control point problem hasn't quite been solved there. AnoNet2 is still | |
| 269 largely controlled by UFO and somerandomnick, but we have both technical | |
| 270 and administrative measures in place to ensure that as the network grows, | |

| 324 | |
| 325 If you just surf aimlessly for hours, you are giving away a lot of | |
| 326 profiling information to your ISP. With the AnoNet proxies, you can | |
| 327 avoid giving your ISP any of this information. (You are still giving the | |
| 328 same information to the AnoNet proxies if you don't use SSL tunneling, | |
| 329 but AnoNet proxies can't connect the profiling information with your | |
| 330 real-life identity, while your ISP (and anybody who can get your ISP | |
| 322 | 331 records) certainly can.) Surfing with AnoNet also means that you don't |

| 333 way while you surf. | |

| 203 | 345 AnoNet shines here. Governments can force Google to cough up your |
| 346 search history, but only if Google can figure out which searches you're | |
| 347 responsible for. If you use Scroogle (HTTPS) through one of AnoNet's | |
| 348 HTTP proxies, the proxy doesn't know what you're looking for, Scroogle | |
| 349 has no clue who you are, and by the time the search makes its way to | |

567 If you're looking for a ready-made community, where you just show up and |
| 55 | 568 "browse," AnoNet (either 1 or 2) is probably not quite what you're after. |

569 The whole concept behind AnoNet is that it's whatever you make it. |
| 185 | 570 Of course, that's not to say you'll have to build everything from |
| 571 scratch, but if you want to be happy here, you're best off bringing | |
| 572 your creativity along rather than leaving it behind when you join. | |
| 573 (If you've been around darknets before, you're probably quite familiar | |
| 574 with "design by committee." On AnoNet, you're more than welcome to | |
| 575 invite a committee to discuss anything you want, but you don't have to | |
| 203 | 576 organize one before doing anything. If (you think) you already know |
| 577 what you're doing, just "build it and they will come.") | |

| 588 | |
| 589 Getting Anonymous Commerce right takes a bit of effort, since nearly | |

| 591 attempt to preserve their power structure. A-Commerce is a core goal | |
| 592 of AnoNet, though, and we hope to achieve it someday. | |

| 203 | 612 at a bit of a moving (and highly subjective) target. You're more than |
| 613 welcome to contribute anything you want, and if it's interesting and/or | |
| 614 useful, it'll probably attract a following. That said, here are a number | |
