For example, 1. Decentralized video game servers hosted on top of the zeronet network, which each connected player serving as a node seeding some chunks of the game files.This would essentially eradicate the notion of a game losing it's multiplayer functionality due it's servers shutting down.Or 2. A completely decentralized cloud storage platform where users can store a pretty much infinite amount of files and encrypt them using their private keys. To keep the whole thing afloat, each user would store and seed encrypted, randomized chunks of a bunch of different files from all across the platform, leaving no discrimination as to which files are saved.This would allow any file/data to essentially live forever among millions of peers all across the globe, immune from any sort of loss, destruction, or censorship. I could imagine the entirety of wikipedia being stored on this hypothetical platform for people centuries in the future to see.The question of course is whether any of this could in theory be Implemented using zeronets currently existing technology.
