  • You need to burn old books first. Also old CD, DVD, BlueRay movies don’t have ads. There are so many movies produced you won’t be able to see all of them if you start right after born and keep tv on 24/7 for the rest of your days. Don’t get me started about old books and old music. People could literally stop buying those things and they will be fine.

    Most of us are just adicted to marketing, news and more things that literally don’t matter because you have no power to change those things. We’re just animals after all, we eat meat so we’re predators, we like to follow the lead.





  • I think we can end discussion here because what you wrote is completly not true.

    Do you even know what P2P stands for ? Do you know that you use P2P every day and all the time, for example by using HTTP2/QUIC.
    You need 0 resources to run P2P network.

    Cloud computing costs are way higher than colocating server anywhere. Many companies are moving out from cloud after facing high costs. The only place cloud is shining is when you want to spin up many resources for a short period of time. And that is because we don’t have kind of computing power provider on the market where you could spin up many resources from many local computers.

    Do you even know why cloud took of 20 years ago ? Have you been using internet 20 years ago ? Compare connection speed of local houshold from 20 years ago with speed right now. Compare mobile internet plan and think how it changed.

    You have no idea what you are writing about.


  • I think that cloud costs are pretty much hidden under the corporate curtain. Things like water usage, energy usage for those 24/7 running servers, amount of servers that are running and not doing anything, finally the environmental impact around those big blocks of servers are pretty much not existent in the media.

    Torrent sharing is doing fine.

    Also doing same things over and over again because USA have it so Europe must have it to is not the way to go for me. I think Europe need it’s own way for technology and have all the bits to do it. I’m not saying that Europe should do the youtube in p2p manner because that’s insane but gov administration and countries beurocracy can go p2p.

    P2P energy cost will be way less in my opinion. The servers don’t need to be online 24/7 if you think about it, for office workers they just need them when they are working. For people you can just request old data on demand and spin up server once per week to send bunch of encrypted emails. We’re used to that internet is instant but gov shouldn’t be instant it should be slow and stable so you don’t get punished, that’s completly oposite from what mainstream media internet is.









  • How many governments were using computers back then when IBM was controlling hardware and how many relied on paper and calculators ? The problem is that gov are dependend on companies right now, not companies dependent on governments.

    Imagine Apple, Google, Amazon and Microsoft decides to leave EU on Monday. They say we ban all European citizens from all of our services on Monday and we close all of our offices and delete data from all of our datacenters. Good Fucking Luck !

    What will happen in Europe on Monday ? Compare it with what would happen if IBM said 50 years ago they are leaving Europe.
