From my understanding the data is for everyone, you sign up if you want to be a member. Like YouTube, you can make an account, but you don't need one to watch videos. This is just how I understand it at the moment, I haven't fully dug into it yet.
Solves almost all these problems and at the VERY least offers a way to avoid these problems INITIALLY if only for the first files added
But advanced features over the protocol that handle "Google Drive"-like set-ups that handle adding new files and designating which files you'd like to download - is available.
Yes I agree. I'm wondering if they are worried about multiple Bittorrent copies that would be swimming around that would actually be malicious. But at the same time, you would just need to download the bittorrent file from their website.
Maybe too many bittorrent download requests would kill the torrent as well and keep the seed servers churning 100% going to nowhere important (as in the deep state just making a ton of downloads and bottlenecking the servers that way, regular people not able to download anything on the torrent).
With a signup you can monitor where several requests are taking place in the same account, stop multiple IPs using same account, etc.

On the signup page it says:
Maybe pages means something other than the data though. Will have to wait and see.
This is to prevent the site from getting DDOSed by bots overloading the downloads.
I'll say it and I'll say it OVER AND OVER
