However it's a problem and we need a solution. A torrent? Yes but Google won't index it. A file on S3 wouldn't work because they could just download it as many times as needed to make the bill skyrocket. Better than a DCMA. Anything that is unaffected by DDoS, costs no money, can be indexed? Edit. One more requirement: not easy censorship.
