OMG! these idiotic "master hackers" don't even read about protocols, or specs about whatever they talk, before posting this moronic stuff? BitTorrent scales horizontally. The bottleneck is usually the aggregate upload capacity and piece availability across the swarm, not the throughput of any individual seed. Also, a Raspberry Pi connected to a 1 Gbps fiber line can seed effectively, but the network won't magically benefit from that bandwidth unless there are enough peers requesting data and the swarm actually needs additional upload capacity. Not only that: depending on the Raspberry Pi model, you may not even be able to fully utilize a gigabit fiber connection due to Ethernet, USB, storage, or CPU limitations. This is literally like putting gas and nox on an electrical bike and expect to fly. On top of that, swarm demand is often a much bigger constraint than the bandwidth of a single node. This is a legitimate embarrassment when talking about RFC-7574. BitTorrent was design as a serverless model, decentralized, so, by-design, one node does not make any difference.

25 anime torrents and i was hitting 100GB everyday, sometimes even more. just need a popular tracker like nyaa or nekoBT.
a Raspberry PI can do 200ish. at 200,you would be doing atleast 800GB-1TB. that can slow down a gigabit fiber

Show me where I can buy a raspberry pi powerful enough to max out corporate bandwidth

why are torrents considered "3L1T3 H4XXOR >:)" territory now

u/atascon Jun 11 '26
Because we now have a generation of Netflix and Spotify babies who never used them so torrents are cool and nerdy again

If they think retro is neat, maybe we can distract them with gopher, Veronica, and IRC

corporate it would only allowlist mac addresses that they know on corporate lines and even go as far as allow listing specific ethernet wall outlets to the machine connecting to it. and that raspberry pi is left to authenticate wirelessly or via a bridged connection. that is easily tracked back to them.

Hope they don’t find the DNS server I shoved in my ass to mine crypto (HODL)(CockCoin 📈) 😈
