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

Download and run the IPFS daemon for your OS (from ipfs.io) and access the banned websites/files locally. That will make you serve them to other people.

There's a set of them on the pinning service I run (https://www.eternum.io/ipns/QmZxWEBJBVkGDGaKdYPQUXX4KC5TCWbv...), so they're in no danger of disappearing, but you'd help in case Spain banned the eternum.io node.

What exactly does this mean?

Do you mean by accessing this address:

No, http://localhost:8000/ipns/QmZxWEBJBVkGDGaKdYPQUXX4KC5TCWbvu..., or whatever your gateway port is.
