> there is a difference between when a hacker crashes a computer and you lose your data and when a hacker hacks your car and then you lose your life.

Forget about hacking your car, what about the hacker that hacks a car fleet? What could a hacker do with a botnet of cars, each with cameras and maybe even face recognition. How about killing off people for the highest bidder at the push of a button.

I see these websocket connections in my network panel.

wss://sfo-3.bootstrap.libp2p.io/ wss://nyc-1.bootstrap.libp2p.io/ wss://nyc-2.bootstrap.libp2p.io/ wss://ams-1.bootstrap.libp2p.io/ wss://lon-1.bootstrap.libp2p.io/

I'm going to guess this is to establish the connections between peers. So this isn't really p2p because while there aren't any intermediaries for data transfer, there certainly are to establish the data connections.

If you want a p2p system because you care mostly about removing servers as a bottleneck, then this may not be an issue, but if you care about removing servers because you don't trust intermediaries, then this only gets you half way there.
