That only addresses issue #3, which is much less important than issues #1 and #2. (and arguably worse: decentralization makes proper sourcing harder)

That's why we're working on a ranking/feedback system (a la piratebay) so that users can see other user comments on the datasets.
Regarding decentralization - we are starting with centralized search, and download times are much better for popular datasets by downloading in parallel from many peers. We are also using a congestion control protocol (Ledbat) that is lower priority than TCP - you will not notice it using your b/w to share data if you are downloading/uploading using TCP.
