Torrenting | Mimi Bebe

Torrenting refers to the act of downloading and uploading files via the BitTorrent protocol, a peer-to-peer file sharing system that enables users to distribute data and electronic files over the Internet in a decentralized manner. BitTorrent has become one of the most common protocols for transferring large files, such as digital video files containing TV shows and movies. The DMCA provides a framework for copyright holders to request the removal of infringing content from torrenting sites. China has blocked access to many torrenting sites, citing concerns over intellectual property infringement. The use of torrenting has been linked to the rise of independent film.
