In depth
IP addresses are not associated with uploads or downloads in any way, and each Blocks application acts as a potential client, server, and caching proxy for data blocks.
The program uses a large disk-bound cache (1 to 64Gb) that is protected by a 128-bit block cipher using a random key based on a strong pseudo random number generator, and the cache is deleted and recreated each time the Blocks server is stopped or started.
All network connections are protected by a 128-bit stream cipher using a session key created from a 512-bit Diffie-Hellman key exchange.
You can easily set up your own separate Blocks network or join a public one; participate in a public Blocks network when you are behind a firewall that stops incoming connections; and perform searches on your local list.
