Blog: P2P

File sharing means to be able to send and receive documents with others. It can be used both positively and negatively and in the article titled "Digital Pirates Winning Battle With Studios" authors Brian Stelter and Brad Stone shed light to one of the negative ways file sharing can be used. To begin with, both authors share how file sharing allowed people to illegally share the Batman movie with millions of people. This in turn affected the plan the producers originally had. Furthermore, another form of file sharing is known as P2P file sharing. P2P file sharing sounds exactly like its name as its a process where a peer shares files with another peer through different technological programs. Some examples of P2P file sharing includes LimeWire, GoogleTalk, and more.
