IPFS

Vox Day directs us to the Brave browser. It seems that it's now natively looking to IPFS as an alternative to HTTP.

Best I can tell, IPFS is a load-balancer that allows friendly nodes to host a site otherwise #cancelled. Like the Daily Stormer, famously. In future the ICANN / DNS group might #cancel any other site, like sites which claim the American election was recently stolen, whether or not we accept the result. Even if ICANN allows a site your service-provider might block it because muh captalizzm.

ReclaimTheNet likens its tech to BitTorrent. So at least ICANN is no longer in this loop.

This aims to return the Fight Against Disinformation to where it should be, to the arena of ideas. Those arguing that the election was stolen may still argue that point. We can then counter them by ... well, someone else can counter them.

I do hope IPFS has a means around ISPs that simply say "nahh that is a service we do not provide for our basic customers". Or ISPs who look at what you're reading like they already do for BitTorrent.
