Not very many use cases??
Except for:
- updates of software.
- distribution of public video files.
- distribution of install images.
- distribution of raw public measurements (ea science data).
Basically BitTorrent is the protocol for any usecase with 1:n (or n:n) with public data (ea. No data access controle is needed).
Copyright has nothing to do with it and the nature of BitTorrent does make it also a good fit for some pirates.
Never forget that the following is shared over BitTorrent:
- World of Warcraft updates.
- Linux distribution install images.
- haveibeenpowned sha lists.
And that’s just what I personally know. I know there is more.
