it's all encrypted, and a darknet, so unless you're routing through exit nodes, or you host an exit node, that information isn't publicly accessible.
the other problem here is the "illegal contents" problem, if UPS accidentally ships a human head in the mail, is that the fault of the UPS? If someone mails a bomb to someone else, is that also the fault of UPS?
Ultimately, there is little to no reasoning as to why you should be capable of getting into trouble, unless you're storing it, and it's a very very strict law. But it's a router, so it shouldn't be storing anything.
There are no exit nodes on i2p.
there can be clear net proxies iirc, which are essentially exit nodes, but they aren't recommended for fairly obvious reasons.
It's called an outproxy
The i2p outproxy is simply a user-specified proxy that i2p uses when you try to fetch someting outside the i2p network. I2p does not implement that proxy itself, therefore it is not part of i2p / it can't be called an i2p exit node.
It seems trivial for the US government to tie data into TOR to data out. If you're hiding things that government is willing to spend effort seeking, it's not safe.
im not sure to which scale this is true, but TOR specifically is highly centralized, and by design I2P is extremely decentralized, with most nodes running network routing of other nodes. Not that it's impossible to do, it's just a lot harder, and not nearly as valuable.
A lot of the ways in which people are got over shit like TOR is just skill issuing. Don't run a drug empire on the darknet and you'll probably be fine. If you do run a drug empire on the darknet, you better be damn fucking good at opsec, and pretty fucking good at laundering money. And even then you'll probably still end up fucking it up.
