>Imagine right now you publish something that is unwanted by certain parties. How would you host that content yourself, when tons want to access it over a regular internet connection?
>How would you protect your own computers from attacks? DDoS?
>How would you protect yourself from being knocked out forever because someone simply fills up your internet connection?
you will see. It's fucking glorious. encryption, sharing, redundancy, distributed routing, etc. Sybil is more of an issue that DDoS, but even that becomes meaningless at scale and cost. DDoS needs a target. There is no target here. It's been in development for over 20 years. This isn't some fucking shitshow crypto project.
>But how do you protect such an infrastructure from illegal content?
>Is ever node supposed to check all the content?
>Or do you go "doesn't matter, even when it's illegal content"? The authorities will care.
>That's why hosting an exit node in certain countries is a really stupid idea.
Exit nodes ARE the user, not some IP. Illegal content? Tough question. Discussed widely and deeply. A.I. will play a role in this. Backdoors and old ideas are not an option. Understand WTF we are up against.
