      Honestly I don’t know. I’m just pointing out the only thing that kind of sort of sounded like a good idea for it I’ve ever heard. For pictures it’s stupid that’s for sure

        It’s not a picture though. It’s a link to a picture on a server somewhere. If the host goes down, you own nothing.

          The technology behind it can be used for things other than pictures. That’s kind of the point people are making

            Right, and my original question was what does the technology solve? And so far the answer appears to be nothing
