grey area, but I really don't think of it as a VPN. A VPN is typically used to connect two networks together, or to allow a disconnected client to incorporate itself into a network. ZT1's networks are first-order entities. Think of it as being like the difference /...\ client and a virtual machine. Both allow you to use a different operating system on your local desktop. The first is a client that connects you to one running somewhere else, while the second actually runs one virtually. The closest thing out there to ZT1 is probably LogMeIn Hamachi /...\ communications between peers are encrypted end-to-end, so while supernodes can see *that* you are communicating (unless you successfully NAT-traverse and connect directly) but cannot read your traffic. Relay nodes assist in NAT traversal by sending a RENDEZVOUS message to both peers periodically if they are being relayed

rough edges around what goes into the registry to configure the tap devices properly so that they look right in the native Windows network connection dialogs. I want the user to be able to use those dialogs too to do things like set firewall policies on a per-tap basis /...\ have those settings stick. 3) I want to make sure that these connections are by default treated as untrusted networks by the Windows firewall, for obvious reasons. If the user wants them to be considered trusted they should have to go into the Windows network connections dialogs

that shouldn't exclude the possibility of usefully exploiting the greater resources of other nodes that run on AC power and have cheap wired connections. So once you admit the possibility of building a network which is both decentralized and asymmetrical it becomes an optimization problem. How close
