- wmf 6y agoWhat's the purpose of Filecoin?
- oarabbus_ 6y agoI thought the purpose of a decentralized or blockchain storage service is that it's trustless - there's no single entity in control, who can unilaterally take off your content.
- wmf 6y agoThere's no single entity that can delete data from Filecoin, but precisely because of decentralization you can't prevent individual storage nodes from deleting data. And if all the nodes holding your data decide to delete it then it's gone.
