The reason I2P is more safe and ethical than Tor for torrenting is the fact
that it was built for that purpose- unlike Tor, which is primarily designed
for standard client/server systems (with clearnet access being part of the
system, unlike for I2P). They do share parts of their architecture- the
tunnels in I2P serve a very similar purpose to Tor relays, although without
the option to open one end to the clearnet- but trying to use Tor for
filesharing causes issues:
*Large file sizes clog up the network for those whose lives depend on it (and
those whose don't- but there's no way to distinguish);
*Loss of anonymity: in order to determine the fastest source of a file- part
of the advantage of torrenting- most clients send your IP address as part of
the packet, so using Tor is akin to sending a secret letter directly to the
enemy
