Most of the problems in the current internet landscape is caused by the cost of centralized servers. What problems are stopping us from running the fediverse on a peer to peer torrent based network? I would assume latency, but couldn’t that be solved by larger pre caching in clients? Of course interaction and authentication should be handled centrally, but media sharing which is the largest strain on servers could be eased by clients sending media between each other. What am I missing? Torrenting seems to be such an elegant solution.

    On personal side I had issues with ISPs assuming traffic was illegal in nature and sending me bogus cease and desist notices.

    On the other hand check if you can sue them for bogus cease and desists. Of you can, do it after changing ISP.
