Cipherspace is the encrypted (and often pseudonymous or fully anonymous) equivalent to cyberspace. Examples of cipherspaces include freenet, the Invisible IRC Project (IIP), the Invisible Internet Project (I2P), and some anonymous mail-forwarding services.
According to its advocates, it should be impossible to know the actual identity of anyone in cipherspace. Therefore, it would be impossible to impose any censorship and to enforce any law. Because of that, they assert that concepts like copyright would be unenforceable inside cipherspace.
Others doubt the possibility of complete anonymity, citing that real networks needs access to external resources, which tend to be trackable.
