Even if the DNS was on a blockchain, the servers would still need to be protected.

Imagine if we had decentralized DNS combined with decentralized server hosting - now youre talking.

Decentralized hosting is what maidsafe is trying to accomplish I think.

Thepiratebay is down and I figured this out the other day I was "browsing" on the site. Needless to say that I was very irked because now I had to "browse" on a different torrent site. ;)

Anyways, I thought about Bitshares and the whole DNS portion of the project. I'm not knowledgeable at all with how the whole domain name system works. (I haven't really tried learning either)

If there was a file sharing website on Bitshares DNS would it be much more resilient against the authorities? Could file sharing websites be the "killer app" for the DNS portion of the project?
