What's different in the CDN use-case is that the content that reached a 3rd user through the uploading user would've reached the 3rd anyway, just from the original server.
- nolok 10y agoYeah but from the point of view of the (unexpecting) uploader that doesn't change anything. If user A wasn't uploading, user B would still get the files from other peers on the torrent, doesn't change the fact A was sharing and actively uploading the file. Not trying to throw a wrench in your game, but I think this is something you guys need to have a look into because you're turning unsuspecting users into uploaders of content they have no control over, without noticing it, when it has been proven to cause them legal harm.
- shacharz 10y agoWe're definitely looking into that, AFAIK for now, is that as long as the content is legal there's no problem with uploading it.
