    I've already graduated and I likely won't be returning as a paying student, so these aren't really viable options for me.

    What's wrong with BT? It can operate encrypted and has the DHT to address/discover content.

    Nothing guarantees that anything keeps serving files forever. BT at least distributes responsibility and allows anyone to easily keep the files hosted.

    I didn't lay any fault, only facts. I'm not sure what it matters what society does in general, Scooter is not interacting with all of society, but rather the people in his immediate location. Furthermore, you're talking as if
