notes VS skynet-cli

Is there an easy way to comply with an accountable IPFS block list?

"Implement Allow Lists and Block Lists" (2018) https://github.com/ipfs/notes/issues/284

"IPIP 298: (allow|deny)lists for IPFS Nodes and Gateways" (2022)

As for general gateways, those could be used to pull general illegal content against your will, and allow/block lists were discussed at one point for that reason (https://github.com/ipfs/notes/issues/284). However, in the interim, there is a config option Gateway.NoFetch that causes a gateway not to fetch new content, giving you an allowlist if you also have the content you want to share pinned beforehand.

> IPFS is basically the answer to the question "what is the RIGHT way to decentralize the web?"

There is no RIGHT way to decentralize the web. I don't think IPFS is right way to do it either.

Tim Berners-Lee's Solid (https://solid.mit.edu/) offers a much more practical path to a decentralized web. The advantages with Solid's approach over IPFS is that:

- Solid doesn't throw out what we already have, and recommend a new layer on top of the internet. Example: ipns

- Solid handles access control which pretty much every application needs. Encryption is btw, a poor substitute for access control. https://github.com/ipfs/notes/issues/376

- Solid has the ability to revoke access (very important), delete data

- Solid can work in browsers without extensions.

- Solid is not muddied with talk of the Blockchain. It's disappointing that the cryptocurrency has very nearly hijacked this space.

- Solid is conceptually simple. You own a pod that has a unique address (using familiar schemes). You put your stuff on it and allow access to people; like DropBox but standards based. Companies can offer paid hosting services to run your pod - more space, bandwidth etc.

- IPFS is not commercialization friendly.

- IPFS performance is unlikely to be great, ever.

Disclosure: I am invested in an open protocol similar to Solid, but simpler. So not entirely unbiased.

This, and a bunch of side issues linked from it, is a good discussion: https://github.com/ipfs/notes/issues/281

IPFS is not anonymous and like other p2p protocols shares your ip address.

There's been a bit of effort to get it working over tor for years now but the fundamental design makes this difficult. Also despite all the money that has poured into filecoin this doesn't seem to be a priority.

This issue is nearly 6 years old:

https://github.com/ipfs/notes/issues/37

As I see, this is an open issue to be implemented natively in IPFS: https://github.com/ipfs/notes/issues/339

it's basically in the InterPlanetary File System the base system is used by Akash its fantastic, download the app https://www.akashlytics.com/deploy very low learning and you can host and use cloud computing and storage https://www.akashlytics.com/ for file transfer https://siasky.net/ is great for a different reason .... https://scrt.network/ecosystem/dapps is an amazing new coming feature https://jackaldao.com/ .... the best project for Storage will be jackal coming soon.... I will defo be in on this for many reasons .... privacy and cost

for op, there is a storage blockchain called siacoin. 100gb free and files split between 3 decentralized hosts. seen too many "he died by going 70mph into a tree" stories then the story purged. when the info could have just been posted here https://siasky.net/

The issue is that siasky.net is a public portal/host and anyone can upload files or websites there. This is not really different from other file or website hosts, but unfortunately the company behind siasky.net doesn't have the resources to keep the domain out of all blocklists because they are still pretty small. You can read more about it here: https://blog.sia.tech/the-worrying-depth-and-scope-of-censorship-on-the-internet-ffd4bc5a5486?source=collection\_home---5------0-----------------------

Please, dont remove https://siasky.net gateway domain, we are using for link our CIDs

Not exactly sure, but if you're willing to put in a little bit of development effort, you should be able to build something on top of https://siasky.net

(5) Once you are happy with the result. You just need to upload the folder (where the files are) to https://siasky.net/ via Sinpapeles.xyz.

can be accesses by the siasky.net domain, but what will happend if this domain is down?

You can test Sia via Skynet out at https://siasky.net/

It's not Skynet that is slow, it is siasky.net which is having issues. So it is simply due to the portal you are using to download from. Granted there aren't any alternatives yet for the general public, but there is a skynetpro server that is currently in beta tests and is dedicated to paid users. There is also a number of other third-party run portals that should be coming online relatively soon. Alternatively however you could always choose to run your own portal and have direct access to Skynet and have 100% control of your own data.

In the end, you can download the files and/or upload to siasky.net.
