Description

This Guardian article is a good "non-technical" read: (_good for sharing with Fb-addicted friends_)

My _biggest_ issue with iPFS relates to the following question (_touched upon in the Guardian article_):

> "_If information is stored in a decentralised way, how do you ever truly get rid of it?_"
i.e: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right_to_be_forgotten

The article concludes with:
"What challenges does the DWeb face? What’s holding things back?"
"A killer app, a thing that everyone wants, could help here – but there isn’t one yet."

Not _yet_. 😉
