P2P File Sharing
P2P File Sharing is a method of distributing digital files directly between users over the internet. In this system, each participant, or "peer," can both download and upload files, allowing for efficient sharing without the need for a central server. This decentralized approach enables faster access to content and reduces the load on any single source.
Commonly used for sharing music, videos, and software, P2P File Sharing relies on specific protocols like BitTorrent to manage the transfer of files. While it offers convenience, it can also raise legal concerns regarding copyright infringement, as users may share protected content without permission.
