On a decentralized, p2p service, the entity that's hosting the content is "everyone". That is, everyone who is a part of the network could be held responsible, either directly (for distributing the content) or indirectly (for being part of a service which does not have a mechanism to follow the law forbidding distribution of the content).
- wereHamster 8y agoWe have to get the governments part of this service (say, if there'll be a service that replaces http, and the governments want to provide digital services to their citizens then they'll have no way around it), so they host the content themselves, then they sue themselves and shut down and we'll be a free society once again.
