KabaOS is a live operating system built on Alpine Linux, designed with privacy and security at its core. All network traffic is routed through the I2P (Invisible Internet Project) network, ensuring your online activities remain anonymous and secure. KabaOS includes a selection of pre-configured programs that are optimized for use over I2P, offering an easy-to-use, privacy-first environment.
This is still in early alpha, and should not be considered battle tested and fully secure. This should only be used for testing purposes currently. There are a handful of preinstalled programs, but they have been generally tested to make sure that they work correctly under I2P, without any additional configuration from the user.
Key Features

Mandatory I2P Routing: Network traffic is forced through I2P via iptables for added security.
No Persistence: The system does not retain any data between sessions, providing a clean slate on every boot.
Hardened Memory Allocator: Increased security to mitigate memory-based vulnerabilities.
