  1. Thank you for a great and interesting product! Feature request (Sharing with strangers - majority voting): I would like the possibility of sharing folders with people I do not know, but without the risk of storing illegal or malicious content on my machine after I hand over the shared key to strangers. The main purpose is to always have files available where ever I am, with high bandwidth and in a reliable way. Suggestion: Would it be possible to add "majority voting" for every upload and deletion? For instance (one way of doing it): When I create a new "share" I would be able to select how votes should be decided. Only people who can vote will be able to upload/delete files in the share. Options: o Voting time: [1, 7, 30] days o Minimum votes: [70] % o Asked to vote: first [100] people/computers who joined the share If a computer is not active for 1 week, it will loose it's voting capability and another computer will be selected randomly. If a user decides he wants to give up his voting power, the power is transferred to another computer. Potential issues: Voting algoritms are difficult to build, especially when they are not controlled by a centralised component. In my case, I would be fine with having this feature running on servers controlled by BitTorrent. Optional: I would like to be able to automatically remove a share in the case that a vote result is the opposite of my vote.
