Is there some reason you can't start up a decentralized content hosting platform. Just let anyone with a spare hd and a spare pc at home join up?
Like I guess I don't really want anything illegal on my PC.... Maybe this plan is awful.
This exists. For example, for general decentralized storage, there's storj.io, and there's PeerTube. But I guess there's a reason it's not more widespread. I'd happily be proven wrong, though.
