> I read that IPFS purposefully has mechanisms in it to allow banning content I'd be interested in reading whatever article you got that from, because last time I checked, IPFS doesn't have any such mechanism. You might be confusing it with the content blocking Protocol Labs does on the public IPFS gateway (https://ipfs.io/ipfs/hash https://ipfs.io/ipfs/hash). The gateway being a centralized gateway to distributed IPFS content, is hosted by a US party and must therefore follow US law, so sometimes they block content from being accessed via the gateway.
