    Neat. Reminds me of bitmagnet, which crawls BitTorrent’s DHT to built a searchable index of torrents. It lacks a peer option though.

    I ran it for an hour and calculated that it would use over 1TB/month of bandwidth, which is too much for my data cap :(

      I used an application like that once, peer to peer dht torrent search. I won’t go near that ever again, that was some nasty stuff I don’t want to get caught dead with.
