@serapath that's an interesting one as torrents still technically work, and the infustrcurtue is still online, though riddled with ads and SPAM. So while technically this is still functioning, it is socially degraded and pushed into the shadow by the #dotcons like Netflix and Amazon Prime etc.
"* #p2p was the poster child of the era of the #openweb it was caught in the quicksand of legal issues, the shadow that was left was eclipsed by "free to use" #dotcons Now finds it hard to come back due to mobile devices not having an IP address, thus most people not actually able to use p2p reliably."
An example of this, my torrent client is regularly blocked by my mobile internet provider - I live on a boat, and yes I do get round this but most people would stumble when this happens.
