I'm not sure what the argumentative line is here. But file uploading and downloading needs to have accountability for hosting, which p2p obscures.
The bad reputation is inherent to the tech, not a random quirk.
- komali2 2y agoIt doesn't really, you can host a server off a raw IP. Downloading from example.com is just peer to peer with someone big. There's lots of hosting providers and DNS providers that are happy to host illegal-in-some-places content.
