Hello, I recently got affected by the mysterium network abuse of sharing illegal materials (via my ip Adress) through B2B channels which only should accept legal traffic. Even though mysterium and storj are different technologies. Is it 100% secure to run a storj node without getting possibly “raid…

I think what OP is talking about… is that allowing any random person to use your Internet connection for nearly-free… leads to entirely predictable results . The Mysterium network was a flawed idea from inception

The node stores 1/80 pieces of the segment of the encrypted file. The digital noise. It’s nearly impossible to reveal the content based only on one piece. However, we can shutdown the link and the account if such content would be published, then detected or reported. See also What is Sto…

But nothing would be hindering, that the same could happen here, or am I wrong? Criminals can still upload CP or other stuff to our nodes and because it’s directly downloaded from the node, the connection to your ISP is easily made. The only thing is, that we store just a bit of the encrypted file…

I only allowed B2B traffic through my ip Adress, which is traffic from verified customers and should be in any case legal traffic. Since over a year there was no problem, until now, when the B2B customer abused the B2B Channel for illegal purposes. Either mysterium did not checked them properly or s…

[image] jammerdan: Only with the native client. Otherwise it goes through the Storj or self-hosted gateway. But for sharing a file publicly to the Internet, I thought the hosted gateway has to be used? So if that assumption is correct, people who download the file will always see STORJ‘s ip a…
