Hi! IPSF noob here! Would I be able to build a completely decentralized Wiki using IPSF? My goal is to create a “Wiki”-type site for sharing guitar chords. Right now all the current sites are pretty awful. Legally I don’t think I can launch it myself, but I was thinking if we built an app using IP…

IPFS is not a good tool for avoiding legal reprecussions, it’s not anonymous (everyone can see your IP), neither is the file automatically “in the cloud”. When you put a file to IPFS is not that it’s there forever. Initially you have to share it and also later, if it doesn’t become super popular.

It’s just an idea at the moment. It could just be launching MediaWiki on IPSF, but it sounds like from @sebaseba this wouldn’t work. I’m not trying to make money off of it — just curious of a way for musicians to collaborate and share chords.

Is there a more anonymous way to do this? I’m curious then, what’s a good use case for IPFS (is there a link to popular use cases?) I was hoping to make an IPFS app to learn more about it.

Yes and no: Anyone can indeed see what you’re sharing with IPFS. However they can’t easily tell if you’re seeding a website you own, or if you are only seeding parts of it because you accessed it yourself. You are thus only at a legal risk if the interest is so big they’re willing to go after anyone…
