How the Catalan government uses IPFS to sidestep Spain's legal block

Thanks for the article. After reading it, I went and added an IPFS node to my Kubernetes deployment on Google Cloud and then mapped the /ipfs and /ipns endpoints through Kong so they would be served by https://api.wisdom.sh/<ipfs|ipns>/. This effectively gives people yet another domain they can use which doesn't require installing the IPFS client. Any IPFS site wil work through the proxy, but here's the site under discussion: https://api.wisdom.sh/ipns/QmZxWEBJBVkGDGaKdYPQUXX4KC5TCWbvu...

If anyone wants the scripts I used to build up the system, let me know. Here's the Kubernetes YAML I used: https://gist.github.com/kordless/5625ae8abf3d3f14dd3f9c9d500...

https://ipfs.github.io/public-gateway-checker/ It would be nice to add your gateway to the list.

It took a very long time to load the page. Consider implementing some caching if you haven't already.

I think it's because the named version is being used (ipns) which may or may not be involving a lot of requests to the network to resolve (perhaps to the main node even). I've resolved and pinned the original content here: https://api.wisdom.sh/ipfs/QmXj5GjZ8WApwq79EyAeNZ2E6pQkJmbrj...
