P2P (Peer-to-Peer) file sharing

Peer-to-peer (P2P) file sharing is a method of exchanging digital files directly between users over the internet, without relying on a central server. In a P2P network, each participant (or "peer") can share their files and access files shared by others. This approach can distribute bandwidth and reduce costs, making it popular for sharing music, videos, and software. While P2P technology has legitimate uses, it can also facilitate the illegal sharing of copyrighted material, leading to legal concerns and challenges regarding intellectual property rights.
