You can store stuff in the IPFS. But probably, someone has to build some archiving tool around it. But you would be vulnerable to copyright claims.
This is what i never understand about attempts at P2P hosting of copyright content. It only works BECAUSE its obscure and irrelevant. As soon as it gets popular, all of these people and their VPN providers would get crushed by lawsuits.
Dont get me wrong i love P2P tech, but it will never solve these issues unless the laws are fixed.
If VPN's actually won't be able to protect its users from copyright claims anymore, there'll still be anonymisation networks like I2P (at least so long as encryption isn't banned).
Yes, it's slow atm, but if it was included in more torrent clients and enabled by default, speeds would likely get better.
