RE: Steem - Steemit/Steem gets a mention in Cointelegraph

Interesting, thanks for sharing. Many are claiming that DTube removes videos after a period of time, is this true? I am not very familiar with DTube.

Sort:  

IPFS has what is called garbage collection. Rarely used videos get purged from a node if its owner chooses to use garbage collection. There is no automatic syncing on IPFS and there is no way to cause a file to be delete from someone else's node.

I see. So, saying that 'videos get removed after a period of time' would be mostly an inaccurate statement?
