We have a technical method to do so, but the site has not been created, that I know of. For example:

* A domain name like ipfs://nytimesmirror.com that mirrors nytimes articles (at the same relative URLs) * Some kind of crowdsourced process for content curation.

I'm aware that it's not legal, but I wouldn't be against it. Content piracy has been a catalyst for change. I simultaneously would be willing to pay nytimes for access to their content but I'm not willing to sign up to a $15 / month subscription. So if their content was widely pirated using delivery method like IPFS they might be incentivized to problem solve that for me.

Yet paying for content has been a catalyst for...content.

What is that even supposed to mean?

Use of an IPFS DNSlink TXT record would make it not decentralized.
