Banning Tor is sus and not wise. I guess I2P traffic over Tor is barely noticeable for Tor, because I2P is much slower. Especially if you need do it by blocking ip addresses and cannot distinguish Tor nodes otherwise then you do it wrong. And now I2P literally has introduced global IP blocklist because of someone's opinionated decision.

Is it much slower though? I know it was, but is it still true? I get decent speeds on my torrents.
For web browsing i2p is still much slower for me than with Tor these days.
That's because you're using it for a purpose it wasn't intended. I2P isn't designed to be used to browse the regular internet, for that it's better to use TOR. However for anonymous torrenting or accessing i2p-sites, it's quite fast imho.

Okay, good.
