Impervious.ai enables a new p2p, censorship and surveillance resistant internet standard.Impervious API is a programmatic layer that sits on top of the Bitcoin Lightning Network, i.e. "Layer 3." Developers can leverage the Impervious API to easily build cryptographically secure, streaming p2p data transmission into their applications and services.The benefits of creating resilient, cryptographically secure, p2p data transmissions channels - via Impervious - are manifold. Circumventing digital intermediaries and establishing p2p data transmissions is a panacea for consumer privacy, data security, censorship resistance, and countering surveillance.Applications that can be built on the Impervious.ai API are essentially boundless, but include p2p streaming video, podcasts, micropayment-based services, broadcasting events, news reporting, and VoIP-based communications. Moreover, existing services and applications can bolster user privacy and security by default streaming data p2p wherever possible, thereby minimizing data retention and control by centralized third party services.
