I was just browsing some torrents lately and anything that isn’t on a torrent is on a website like rapidgator. Rapidgator is ok if you downloading audiobooks, but why aren’t more people using OnionShare to send and receive files? I haven’t used it and I don’t know it’s limitations, but if I ever wanted a file which was shared over it, I would spring into action and install it.
So yeah, why?
Probably because of speed. Torrenting over VPN is a lot faster than sharing over Tor.
