<h1>{{ _('I2P Easy Install Bundle(Beta)') }}</h1>
<p>{% trans -%}
The I2P Firefox Browser Profile has been expanded into the new I2P Easy Install
Bundle, which is in Beta. If you already have an I2P Router installed, it is
still safe to use this installer to configure your I2P Browser. If you do not
have an I2P router installed, then you do not need to install I2P. This package
will install I2P at the same time it installs the browser profile. This page
has been kept to document the motivations and design of the included Firefox
profile.

<h2>{{ _('I2P Firefox Browser Profile') }}</h2>
<p>{% trans -%}
Now that you have joined the I2P network, you will want to see I2P Sites and and 
other content that is hosted on the network. The Firefox browser profile is 
pre-configured to allow you to access the content available on the network.

<h2>{{ _('Why should I use it?') }}</h2>
<p>{% trans -%}
Browsers are highly complex and powerful engines for executing code and displaying
information obtained mainly from strangers on the internet. By default, they
tend to leak a great deal of information about the person using them to the servers
they retrieve information from. Using this browser profile allows you to become
part of a "common" set of very similar browser users, instead of appearing unique
or revealing details of your hardware or software. Because this involves disabling 
some browser features, this also reduces the attack surface available to outsiders. 
This keeps you safer while browsing the Invisible Web.

<h2>{{ _('What is in it?') }}</h2>
<p>{% trans -%}The I2P router is "jpackaged" which means that it includes all
the required Java components it needs to run successfully. It does not require
a separate Java installation.
{%- endtrans %}</p>
<p>{% trans -%}
This browser profile also includes both the NoScript and HTTPSEverywhere plugin for
better protection Javascript based attacks and HTTPS support where available. It
also keeps your I2P search activity separate from your visible internet search
activity. The profile configures the I2P Proxy for all sites and browser features.
I2P In Private Browsing is used to provide I2P-Specific browser integrations.

<h2>{{ _('How is it different from Tor Browser?') }}</h2>
<p>{% trans -%}
This is not a fork of Firefox. Instead, it is a browser profile with pre-configured
settings, combined with an I2P router and some launcher scripts. That means that
it requires Firefox(Or Tor Browser) to be installed before you can use it. This
is for security reasons, it is important that you are able to recieve reliable
updates from a trustworthy vendor. As much as we would like to, we can't 
maintain a whole Firefox fork and provide timely updates for it right now.
{%- endtrans %}</p>
<p>{% trans -%}
I2P routers are designed to have long uptimes, and so unlike Tor Browser, the
lifetime of your I2P Router is not tied to the lifetime of your I2P browsing
session. The browser profile will manage your history, your browser's local
storage and cache, and your browsing context but it will never stop your I2P
router on it's own. You may stop the router using the web interface on the
router console homepage.
