  Isn’t the real problem that many ISPs and providers meter bandwidth at all? IMO stuff like this and Bittorrent is how the web should work, although of course I’d rather see an open standard than a proprietary network (if that’s even possible under a paradigm like this and Apple Find My / AirTags).

    its all good if there can be a way to properly avoid/assaign blame when someones crime hops through your infra. of course, you can opt out of sidewalk, i do like the idea of sharing for the community, we dont get very many malignant WAR-ers around here, but some issues have occured.

  And so does Apple's Find My, but I never see anyone complaining about that.

    both these are supposed to to be minimal unobtrusive usages, i think as time goes on creativity will add some exploits to the mix, such as using it as a sidechannel for CnC packets
