- 7ero 9y agoMost likely, it will. But since it's decentralized, it would be hard to enforce copyright.
- viraptor 9y agoProbably not that hard. IPFS is not explicitly trying to hide your traffic. If you're seeding copyrighted content, your ISP can be sent whatever the country-supported legal papers are needed to punish you.
- corobo 9y agoCopyright issues are the easy end of the problem stick too. I'm going to straight up ask - what happens when a child porn ring starts using this?
- 52-6F-62 9y agoIt appears to already be a home to some fringe stuff. "Big cities are like financial slave camps - Take a break at the Zenvow Meditation Resort - All crypto Meditation Resort in Portugal" (of course this is crazy, but harmless—at least initially) I would also like to know what solution has been proposed for that problem.
- Pavitra 9y agoIPFS supports censorship, theoretically.
