- sltkr 1y agoIt's not unreasonable for each customer to maintain a separate cache (for security reasons), so that each of them will download the file once. Then it only takes one bad user on the same subnet to ruin the experience for everyone else. That sucks, and isn't working as intended, because the intent was to only punish the one abusive user.
