    Yesn’t. Yes we have DNS, which is bad enough. But the internet itself was build to be resistant and distributed. DNS is distributed, but not decentralized. However, decentralized protocols (read BitTorrent protocols, etc.) do exist, and does make it more decentralized. Without the need of DNS.

    I’m never doing to trust a single org or group to control a large group of users/people or projects. Never.

      Nothing that involves authoritative state of data can be decentralized. Ultimately something is a source of truth. Who decides what the torrent data is? Congratulations, your system is now centralized.

      Decentralized systems are anarchist mastubatory fantasy, distributed systems are what runs the world.

        I believe you still have no idea how BitTorrent protocol works if you reply with such a comment.

        What torrent data? I’m not talking about any data! I’m talking about decentralized protocols. Not the data that goes over it.
