How do you imagine they could shut down torrents and ipfs?
- datadeft 3y agoLike making it illegal and fining it? https://www.reddit.com/r/germany/comments/2hxy4j/help_me_german_pirates_torrent https://www.reddit.com/r/germany/comments/2hxy4j/help_me_ger... Or blocking the bootstrapping? https://www.reddit.com/r/ipfs/comments/tzrkoc/is_ipfs_blocked_on_my_country_wouldnt_it_defeat/ https://www.reddit.com/r/ipfs/comments/tzrkoc/is_ipfs_blocke... There are plenty of options.
- crtasm 3y agoMaking something illegal isn't "shutting it down". Your IPFS link is a screenshot of someone failing to access docs.ipfs.io in a standard webbrowser over HTTP. Are you aware how many people use VPNs? Also take a look at how Tor Project hand out unlisted entry points into their network - IPFS could take a similar approach if it really came to it.
