"BTWeb (BitTorrent Web) is the internet's original sharing superpower. It turns every downloader into an uploader, creating a swarm of speed. Use it for open data, Linux distributions, and knowledge. Respect the creators. But never underestimate the power of a crowd sharing the load."

Leo smiled. "Ah, the ghost of the early internet. You're talking about , or as we used to call it, the 'people's CDN.'"

You could upload it to a single server, but that server would crash if a thousand people tried to download it at once. Or, you could use BTWeb."

"Old way: One person uploads. One server. One hundred people download. The server screams, melts, and dies."

"Leo," she asked, sliding her chair over. "What in the world is BTWeb?"
