Meta, but did backchannel change the title, or did the submitter? It seems like a weird editorilization, from the current "The Inside Story of BitTorrent’s Bizarre Collapse".
"Unbelievable story of..." feels very click-bait to me.

Interesting. Anyone know if it's updated from [0]? Wonder if it'll just use the same Software. The book [1] was interesting.

So is it over? Can you make a new main post about this so everyone knows and it can be discussed? I, for one, am sick of overly broad interpretations of "politics" being used to flag interesting apolitical articles.

This is the second post I've seen just this morning trying to shut down a post due to it being "political" when it clearly isn't. I'm sad to say that I saw this coming, and it was a big part of why I didn't like the "experiment".
Aside: I only really noticed this post because it was initially at the top of the page due to being new. I probably would have otherwise ignored it.

Immediately thought about this "solution" to bandwith overage charges as well. Would not be surprised if it ended up getting you disabled for abuse or going against the TOC, etc.
