Add torrent encryption as default download method to avoid `dmca_p2p` report

yingshaoxo opened this issue · comments

I recently downloaded an animation called Rick and Morty, by doing so, the server provider send me a dmca_p2p report, and say they'll shutdown my server if I did that.

Violation Type: dmca_p2p
Reported By: Vobile Compliance

As far as I know, the transmission has an option to force using encryption method to download files.

If you guys could create this feature, that would be good, otherwise, I'll drop webtorrent for my server safety.

MSE is already added and enabled by default, I recommend you use a private tracker instead

MSE only really provides protection agains MITM spying, what your issue is that you're seeding to public trackers which is why you got dmca'd

Please don't think me as a professional content sharer, I'm just a normal torrent user who wants to do some contribution by seeding the file.

If I use privite traker, others won't be able to download my file.
