Decentralized File Sharing

Decentralized file sharing is a way of distributing files over the internet without a central server. Instead of relying on one location to store and send files, users share files directly with each other. This system uses peer-to-peer (P2P) technology, allowing anyone to contribute to and access files. It enhances privacy, reduces the risk of server failures, and can make file sharing faster. Examples include platforms like BitTorrent, where users download and upload pieces of a file simultaneously, ensuring that no single entity controls the data. This approach promotes resilience and efficiency in sharing information.
