From a Sony legal perspective, yes.

When Big Brother decides to force ISPs to tamp it down, they'll do stuff like set limits on unidentifiable traffic, set caps just above reasonable streaming levels.

When there's no freedom of speech, no right to be innocent, you can tell who's torrenting, especially if you don't have to be 100% right to kick them off your network.

    How about forming end to end encrypted wireless ad hoc networks?

    Meshes are powerful. They're great at the community level, but scale is an issue.

    With the low price of very large thumb drives these days, sneakernet would work.

    It would be interesting to see something DHT like IPFS overhauled to work on intermittent mesh networks.

    Maybe something in between IPFS and SoulSeek. You keep a list of what you want, when someone comes on line with it you get it, or perhaps we all set aside a couple hundred gigs to fulfill requests.
